Pacific Coastline Dash – Catalina & Ensenada

About this cruise

4 nights from Los Angeles, visiting Santa Catalina Island and Ensenada. It sails August 10, 2026 and it's the sort of trip where you come back saying "I needed that." With 1 sea days woven in between port calls, there's time to actually use the ship and recharge. Pacific coastline, tall trees, and laid-back cities. The West Coast route has range. Ensenada alone is worth the trip, Baja wine country with a surf town soul. Around 9 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. Carnival Firenze keeps you well fed. 11 places to eat, with 5 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. The timing works well too: warm evenings on deck, late sunsets, and a lively atmosphere. Worth booking. That's the short version.
