Prickly Pear – La Paz & Cabo San Lucas

About this cruise

No complicated itinerary, no back-to-back transfers, just the ports, the ship, and the sea in between. This 8-night sailing from Los Angeles on July 3, 2027 visits Puerto Vallarta, Mazatlan, La Paz and Cabo San Lucas. You ease into this one, with a few sea days up front to find your rhythm before the 4 port calls start. Mayan ruins, colourful markets, and Pacific sunsets. The Mexican Riviera earns its repeat visitors. Keep an eye out for Mazatlan: Colonial centro meets Pacific surf. Around 9 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, Carnival Panorama has 15 dining spots on board, most of them included. The timing works well too: warm evenings on deck, late sunsets, and a lively atmosphere. That's 8 nights well spent.
