Thx for the replies. We were researching to help us decide which 12 day p&o cruise to take out of Southampton. 6 days at sea for 3 days in the canaries and two stops in Lisbon and Funchal in Portugal.

There was no easy home runs that said in each port to take cab/bus/walk to this beach and enjoy day with food, umbrellasand bathrooms. Often, it was place is austere or over rocks or no facilities or over an hour each way. Or you'll be lone in this deserted beach and can't get a cab. Also, on one website it would say this beach is and on another that beach isn't.

The prices and airfares were good but without a clear plan for how each port would be maxed out we opted to go to st Martin for a full 12 day we know what we're getting and know it will be great.

Maybe next year. We are still looking for good ideas from ttolers for canary port stops if folks are reading this. The Internet is sorely lacking.
