Copper Canyons & Cobalt Tides – La Paz & Cabo San Lucas

About this cruise

You board in Los Angeles on November 7, 2026 for 8 nights visiting Puerto Vallarta, Mazatlan, La Paz 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 4 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 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. There are 15 restaurants on Carnival Panorama, so you'd need to double up a few evenings to try them all in 8 nights. Los Angeles itself is worth spending some time in. Don't just treat it as a departure point. The autumn timing is underrated too. Good weather, calmer seas, and a more relaxed ship. It's the kind of trip you actually remember afterwards.
