From Cobh, one of Europe's largest natural harbours, you can spend
a day exploring Cork. The bustling city centre is home to fascinating
shops and markets and traditional Irish music can be heard drifting
out of the many pubs. The town of Blarney, with its famous Blarney
Stone lies just six miles inland.
Heading south Azura now makes her approach to Spain. Nestled on
its northern coast is Bilbao, a city now well-known because of the
spectacular Guggenheim modern art gallery. Wander along the winding
alleys of Casco Viejo and visit the gothic Cathedral de Santiago.
Following the coast north to France, your next call is the maritime
city of Brest. As well as boasting a naval museum and a massive
Oceanopolis, it is also your gateway to the ruggedly scenic province
of Brittany. After a day here, Azura begins her journey back to
Southampton.
