Buoyant Spirit – Puerto Vallarta from Los Angeles

About this cruise

You board in Los Angeles on March 29, 2026 for 7 nights visiting Puerto Vallarta, Mazatlan and Cabo San Lucas, and you come back from this kind of trip wondering why you don't do it more often. You ease into this one, with a few sea days up front to find your rhythm before the 3 port calls start. Cabo's beaches at one end, jungle-backed Central American ports at the other. If one port sticks with you, it'll probably be Puerto Vallarta, Cobblestone streets, Pacific sunsets. Around 10 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. You won't go hungry on Norwegian Bliss. 7 restaurants come with the fare, plus 11 more when you feel like treating yourself. Timing-wise, spring usually means comfortable temperatures and lower prices than peak season. It's the kind of trip you actually remember afterwards.
