This 3-night Mexican Riviera cruise aboard the Carnival Radiance by Carnival Cruise Line departs Los Angeles on December 17, 2026, calling at Ensenada, and returns December 20, 2026. Cabin prices start from $247 per person.
Los Angeles cruise port is in San Pedro, a harbor neighborhood at the southern tip of the city, about 25 miles from downtown LA and 18 miles from LAX. The port is called the World Cruise Center, and it's the main departure point for Mexican Riviera, Hawaii, and Pacific Coast itineraries.
Ensenada sits on the Pacific coast of Baja California, 80 miles south of the US-Mexico border. It's the closest foreign port to Southern California, which makes it the default quick-cruise stop for ships departing Los Angeles, Long Beach, and San Diego on 3-5 night itineraries.
