From the world’s best nightlife to some of Spain’s most isolated and quiet beaches, it’s an island that lets you create your own playground. We’ll arrive at night, in time for a walk through the streets of the old town of Dalt Vila, a drink on the terrace, and a visit to one of the legendary nightclubs. Or just watch the parade of craziness!
Ibiza, Spain
Today head over to the other side of Ibiza. After last night's fabulousness, maybe a relaxing day on the beach is in order, and Ibiza has plenty of them, ranging from the electric gay beach at Las Salinas to quiet coves along the island's rugged coast. Take some time to wander through Dalt Vila during the day. Or explore on your own one of the island’s many charming villages. It's all here for you and easy to reach with our extra-long visit.
Great Day at Sea
Relax. Connect. Play. That’s a day at sea with Atlantis. Start off whenever you feel like it – after all you’re on vacation. Join a few friends for brunch or find your place in the sun. Drop into the Spa for a pampering treatment or refreshing workout. Take in a few pool games or a little afternoon silliness like Bingo.
Malaga, Spain
The capital of Spain’s Costa del Sol welcomes over 6 million tourists each year to Malaga’s powder-white beaches, Picasso Museum, and inviting old town.

For a spectacular once-in-a-lifetime experience, journey to the palace of Alhambra in legendary Granada, where history and breathtaking views combine for an unforgettable adventure.
Seville (Cadiz), Spain
Seville, the breathtaking capital of Andalusia, is one of Spain’s most iconic cities. Founded as a Roman town, it boasts a stunning mix of Roman, Moorish, and modern architecture. Visit the lavish St. Mary of the See Cathedral or explore the grand Plaza de España. Don't miss indulging in the city’s renowned tapas scene.
