Solstice Meridian – Kona, Honolulu & Ensenada

About this cruise

If you've got 16 nights to work with, this sailing from San Francisco on January 11, 2027 through Kailua-Kona, Honolulu, Kahului and Ensenada is genuinely one of the better ways to spend them. You ease into this one, with a few sea days up front to find your rhythm before the 4 port calls start. Volcanic peaks, rainforest, good surf. Hawaii is Hawaii. It doesn't need much explaining. Ensenada stands out. It's Baja wine country with a surf town soul. Around 10 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. Ruby Princess keeps you well fed. 11 places to eat, with 6 included in the fare and a few specialty spots if you're in the mood. There are enough performances, events, and social mixers on a cruise this length that you couldn't do them all if you tried. And that's a good problem. Families and groups will find plenty to do: waterslides, shows, multiple pools, and something for every age. If you can, add a night in San Francisco before boarding. It's a good city to wander. All in all, it's a solid trip.
