Stone Arch – Cabo San Lucas & Mazatlan

About this cruise

A week or so at sea, a few great ports, and nothing to organise once you're on board. This 8-night sailing from Los Angeles on October 10, 2026 visits Puerto Vallarta, Mazatlan, La Paz and Cabo San Lucas. The sea days come first, which means no rushing to get off the ship on day one. You hit the ports relaxed and ready. Mayan ruins, colourful markets, and Pacific sunsets. The Mexican Riviera earns its repeat visitors. Puerto Vallarta alone is worth the trip, Cobblestone streets, Pacific sunsets. Roughly 9 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, Carnival Panorama has 15 dining spots on board, most of them included. And October is a good call. Still warm, less crowded, and usually cheaper too. Worth booking. That's the short version.
