San Diego to Fuerte Amador Cruise

Day 1 - San Diego

Arrive: Mon 09 August 2027 / Depart: Mon 09 August 2027 at 19:00

This magical city is festive and friendly, from its legendary zoo to Balboa Park everyone here seems to be living that quintessential California lifestyle – sun, sand and surf. Between ocean and desert, the near perfect weather here is ideal for exploring charming neighborhoods, gorgeous parks, and of course, the beach.

Day 2 - At Sea

Day 3 - At Sea

Day 4 - Puerto Vallarta, Mexico

Arrive: Thu 12 August 2027 at 09:00 / Depart: Thu 12 August 2027 at 18:00

Embraced by rugged tropical mountains on one side and the beautiful Banderas Bay on the other, Puerto Vallarta is second only to Acapulco when it comes to the Mexican Riviera's leading resort cities. White stucco houses are capped with red-tile roofs and surrounded by bougainvillea-lined cobblestone streets. Native women who beat their laundry along riverbanks as busy fishing boats return to port illustrate a lifestyle that has been maintained for decades. Nearby, sophisticated restaurants, luxury hotels, smart boutiques and lively nightclubs bear testament to the changes wrought on this quiet seaside city since the 1960s. Life here has never been quite the same since the filming of the movie "Night of the Iguana" and the worldwide publicity accorded the romance of its stars, Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor. Puerto Vallarta brims with life. Shop for leather goods, shell and silver jewelry, hand-embroidered blouses or painted figures from Oaxaca. Explore cobblestone streets and picturesque alleyways filled with the scents and bustling energy of Mexico.

Day 5 - Manzanillo

Arrive: Fri 13 August 2027 at 07:00 / Depart: Fri 13 August 2027 at 18:00

Despite being Mexico’s biggest and busiest seaport, this sunny destination is known for its miles of golden sand beaches – by some counts there are twenty – and water sports including swimming, stand-up paddle boarding, surfing, snorkeling and diving. Manzanillo hosts the annual International Sailfish Tournament (be sure to see the 82-foot turquoise sailfish statue in town!), so not surprisingly, the deep-sea fishing here is excellent, too.

Day 6 - Zihuatanejo

Arrive: Sat 14 August 2027 at 07:00 / Depart: Sat 14 August 2027 at 15:00

With its golden beaches and brilliant waters, the picturesque seaside port of Zihuatanejo is somewhat reminiscent of Polynesia. Just five miles away lies its twin town, the resort of Ixtapa, an isolated oasis of high-rise hotels, yet Zihuatanejo's natural beauty has been preserved and its pristine, fine sandy beaches remain.

Day 7 - At Sea

Day 8 - Acajutla, El Salvador

Arrive: Mon 16 August 2027 at 08:00 / Depart: Mon 16 August 2027 at 17:00

Relatively new on cruising sojourns, El Salvador is likely to become pinned as a surprising favorite, due to a unique blend of authenticity and rusticity combined with classic tropical attractions – think national parks, steep volcanos, wide beaches, colonial history, colorful handcrafts and an easy-going attitude. Outdoor pursuits might put you in snorkel gear or on ziplines, or you might make a beeline for a café serving the region’s famed coffee.

Day 9 - San Juan del Sur

Arrive: Tue 17 August 2027 at 10:00 / Depart: Tue 17 August 2027 at 18:00

Acrescent-shaped bay, excellent surfing and fishing, and authentic, laid-back culture make this slice of paradise a tempting invitation to stroll golden-sand beaches and streets lined with wooden buildings painted in vibrant colors. Hammocks and sunsets are the way of life here, where the hilltop statue of Christ of the Mercy gazes upon the bay, like Christ the Redeemer in Rio de Janeiro, but on a much smaller scale.

Day 10 - Puntarenas, Costa Rica

Arrive: Wed 18 August 2027 at 07:00 / Depart: Wed 18 August 2027 at 17:00

One of Latin America's most peaceful countries, often called the "Switzerland of Central America," Costa Rica does not possess an army and boasts a stable democratic government as well as a high literacy rate. Strategically located between two great continents, it has been the benefactor of great cultural contributions from each. Visitors to Costa Rica will be welcomed by friendly people and will enjoy superb scenery and an ideal climate.

Day 11 - At Sea

Day 12 - Panama City

Arrive: Fri 20 August 2027 at 07:00 / Depart: Fri 20 August 2027
