Desert Foothills – Cabo & Ensenada from L.A.

About this cruise

A lot can happen in 5 nights. This sailing from Los Angeles on July 9, 2026 visits Cabo San Lucas and Ensenada and makes every day count. There's a nice rhythm here: explore a port, recover at sea, do it again. You never feel rushed or restless. Cabo's beaches at one end, jungle-backed Central American ports at the other. Cabo San Lucas alone is worth the trip, Where the desert kisses the sea. Around 9 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. Carnival Radiance takes the food seriously, with 13 restaurants to choose from. 8 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. A strong pick for first-timers. Not too long, not too short, and you get a taste of the routine. The timing works well too: warm evenings on deck, late sunsets, and a lively atmosphere. Worth booking. That's the short version.
