Southern Current – Ensenada & San Lucas

About this cruise

No complicated itinerary, no back-to-back transfers, just the ports, the ship, and the sea in between. This 6-night sailing from Los Angeles on December 13, 2026 visits Cabo San Lucas and Ensenada. There's a nice rhythm here: explore a port, recover at sea, do it again. You never feel rushed or restless. Mayan ruins, colourful markets, and Pacific sunsets. The Mexican Riviera earns its repeat visitors. People come back from this cruise talking about Ensenada: Baja wine country with a surf town soul. There are 15 restaurants on Carnival Panorama, so you'd need to double up a few evenings to try them all in 6 nights. Los Angeles itself is worth spending some time in. Don't just treat it as a departure point. A December sailing is basically an excuse to chase the sun for a week or two. 2 ports, one suitcase. That's the appeal.
