Ports of Call

Cruise from Southampton

• Bilbao (Getxo): Arriving at Getxo places you close to Bilbao, a city that blends tradition with striking modern design. Visit the Guggenheim Museum, stroll through the Casco Viejo old town, or ride the funicular for sweeping valley views. Bilbao’s renewal has made it one of Spain’s most compelling cities.
• La Coruña: A Galician city with a long seafront promenade and a compact old quarter. Explore the Tower of Hercules, enjoy the lively Maria Pita Square, or sample seafood along the harbourfront. It’s a stop that combines heritage with ocean views.
• Vigo: A working port with a lively atmosphere and access to beautiful surroundings. Head inland to Santiago de Compostela, take a ferry to the Islas Cíes, or wander Vigo’s old quarter with its narrow lanes. The city offers both cultural depth and coastal escape.
• Cherbourg: A French port with strong naval traditions and a relaxed Norman setting. Visit La Cité de la Mer museum, walk along the old fortifications, or explore the town centre’s gardens and shops. Cherbourg offers a rich history and a slower pace of life.
