Sun-Drenched Sierra – Cabo & Puerto Vallarta

About this cruise

You sail from Los Angeles on October 3, 2026 and spend 7 nights visiting Cabo San Lucas, Mazatlan and Puerto Vallarta. It's a well-tested route and there's a reason people keep booking it. The ports come early and the voyage wraps with sea days. A good way to decompress before heading home. Cabo's beaches at one end, jungle-backed Central American ports at the other. Most ports give you about 9 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, Your ship is Brilliant Lady, sailing under the Virgin Voyages flag. Being shoulder season helps: golden light, comfortable weather, and shorter queues at the popular spots. Good route, good ship, good timing. It all lines up.
