CRUISE HIGHLIGHTS

Leixoes
Near the city of Porto, Leixos is one of Portugal's major seaports and is widely associated with the exporting of port wine. Day trips to Porto are a popular activity, but there are also quayside beaches and cafes to enjoy on either side of the Douro River.

Cadiz
The ancient seaport of Cadiz is a testament to Spain's seafaring history. From charming plazas to sun-drenched beaches, the city invites exploration of its cultural richness and Andalusian allure.

Vigo
Vigo, nestled in Spain's Galician region, allures with its historic Old Town, stunning waterfront, and the pristine Cies Islands a short boat ride away. Explore medieval streets, discover Castro Fortress, and savour the delights of fresh seafood and other Spanish delicacies.

ORCA

ORCA is one of the UK’s leading whale and dolphin conservation charities, dedicated to the protection of whales, dolphins and porpoises around the world. Ocean Conservationists will be showcasing the incredible diversity of wildlife that can be spotted from the deck, helping everyone learn more about the marine environment around them whilst collecting vital data about whales, dolphins and porpoises to contribute to their protection. Whilst on board, the team will be delivering activities to help guests learn more about these amazing animals as well as the threats they face, including the Ambassador & ORCA pledge and the first ever cruise "Anti-whaling" campaign.

What to expect on this sailing... A fantastic itinerary taking in three countries but also giving ORCA much needed winter data to understand the movement of different species during the colder months. Crossing hotspots like the Bay of Biscay and the Iberian Coast will give an important insight into how these animals migrate around during the winter each year.
