Sun-Baked Kelp – Catalina & Ensenada from LA
About this cruise
Book 4 days off from August 30, 2027 and this cruise from Los Angeles will do the rest, taking you to Santa Catalina Island and Ensenada and back. The mix of 2 days ashore and 1 at sea means you won't feel like you need a holiday from your holiday. Craft coffee in one port, old-growth forest in the next. The West Coast has its own rhythm. If one port sticks with you, it'll probably be Santa Catalina Island, An island escape just off the California coast. Roughly 10 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. There are 16 restaurants on Ovation Of The Seas, so you'd need to double up a few evenings to try them all in 4 nights. Los Angeles itself is worth spending some time in. Don't just treat it as a departure point. And August means long, warm days. Good for the ports, good for the pool. It's the kind of trip you actually remember afterwards.
