There are a few reasons you might pick January for a cruise. Perhaps your New Year’s resolution was to spend a little more time relaxing or seeing more of the world – in which case a cruise holiday is certainly the answer. The good news is that holiday prices in January tend to be much lower, sparing you a pretty penny or two. Whatever your reason for booking a January cruise, don’t they say ‘start as you mean to go on’?

Although it is winter in Spain in January, you’ll enjoy pleasantly mild temperatures as well as generous glimpses of sunshine. Of the destinations we travel to, Alicante has the highest average temperature in January at 17°C and an average low of 6°C, plus only around two days of rainfall for the month. And while it is expected to rain for two weeks in Vigo, where lows can dip to 7°C, it reaches average highs of 14°C – not bad.

If you’d like to get your new year off to a warm and sunny start, consider kicking back on a Caribbean cruise holiday with us. Or, for scenic landscapes and plenty of sunshine, consider Portugal and the Canary Islands for a flavour of summer that’s closer to home.

For a brisk yet cosy entrance into the new year, consider a Western Europe cruise holiday; if you’re a lover of Christmastime, you might be pleased to know that you’ll have the opportunity to enjoy the last of the year’s festive markets.
