Our eight-night voyage around the Iberian Peninsula, from Lisbon to Barcelona, offers glimpses of the past and future in equal measure. Departing the old-world cobbled streets of Lisbon, we sail first to the Algarve to relax on the beautiful beaches of one of today`s favorite seaside resorts, Portimão. Crossing the border to Spain, one of Europe`s oldest cities, Cadiz, comes into view and the point is made about how close we are to the continent of Africa with a hop across the water to Tangier in Morocco. Sailing on to Málaga, there`s time to see modern masterpieces by Picasso in the museum in his name. A day at sea heralds arrival in Valencia, a city renowned for its futuristic architecture, before our voyage concludes in Barcelona.

10 EXCURSIONS

The white contour of a church on a hilltop, the narrow streets of the old fishermen and tradesmen quarter, the presence of the sea and the immense beach known as Praia da Rocha identify the character of Portimao. The old town is dominated by the architecture of the late 19th and 20th centuries: houses boasting wrought-iron balconies, ornate stonework around the windows and doors, balustrades of stone and tile-covered ceramics and walls. This southern Portuguese port is the gateway to many historic towns of the Algarve region. The town offers a rich heritage of historical monuments and the eternal natural beauty of the Ria de Alvor. Portimao is also known for its extraordinary Portuguese cuisine. To savour the spirit of Portimao, there is nothing better than to sit in the shade of the trees in the gardens of Manuel Bivar, to watch the fishing boats sail by and to walk through streets and squares that exude the ambience of an active, hard-working town.
