Sun-Drenched Cliffs – San Diego & Cabo San Lucas

About this cruise

You board in Los Angeles on October 30, 2027 for 7 nights visiting San Diego, Ensenada and Cabo San Lucas, and you come back from this kind of trip wondering why you don't do it more often. You do all the exploring first, then the last few days are at sea. It's like a built-in wind-down. Pacific coastline, tall trees, and laid-back cities. The West Coast route has range. People come back from this cruise talking about Cabo San Lucas: Where the desert kisses the sea. Around 9 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. The ship is Virgin Voyages's Brilliant Lady. This length suits most people. Enough time to settle in and actually unwind, without the trip dragging on. If you can, add a night in Los Angeles before boarding. It's a good city to wander. The autumn timing is underrated too. Good weather, calmer seas, and a more relaxed ship. 3 ports, 2 countries, one suitcase. That's the appeal.
