Bronze Coast – Cabo San Lucas from Los Angeles

About this cruise

A week or so at sea, a few great ports, and nothing to organise once you're on board. This 8-night sailing from Los Angeles on April 11, 2026 visits Puerto Vallarta, Mazatlan, La Paz and Cabo San Lucas. The sea days come first, which means no rushing to get off the ship on day one. You hit the ports relaxed and ready. Mayan ruins, colourful markets, and Pacific sunsets. The Mexican Riviera earns its repeat visitors. Of the stops, Puerto Vallarta tends to be the one people talk about: Cobblestone streets, Pacific sunsets. Roughly 9 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. Carnival Panorama keeps you well fed. 15 places to eat, with 7 included in the fare and a few specialty spots if you're in the mood. Families and groups will find plenty to do: waterslides, shows, multiple pools, and something for every age. If you can, add a night in Los Angeles before boarding. It's a good city to wander. And April is a good time to go. Mild weather, things starting to bloom, and fewer people than summer. Sometimes the best trips are the ones you just go ahead and book.
