Spindrift Spurt – Catalina & Baja Coast

About this cruise

4 nights from Los Angeles, visiting Santa Catalina Island and Ensenada. It sails April 26, 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. Santa Catalina Island stands out. It's An island escape just off the California coast. 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. Timing-wise, spring usually means comfortable temperatures and lower prices than peak season. All in all, it's a solid trip.
