17 Night Hawaii Cruise

San Diego is a major cruise port on the Southern California coast, about 120 miles south of Los Angeles and directly on the Mexican border. The B Street Cruise Ship Terminal and adjacent Broadway Pier sit in downtown San Diego along the Embarcadero waterfront, within walking distance of the Gaslamp Quarter, Seaport Village, and the USS Midway Museum.

Honolulu is the capital of Hawaii and the primary cruise hub for the Hawaiian Islands, serving as both the embarkation point for inter-island Hawaii cruises and a port of call on transpacific and repositioning itineraries. Ships dock at Honolulu Harbor's Aloha Tower or Pier 2, both within the downtown waterfront area and a short distance from Waikiki.

Ships dock at Kahului Harbor on Maui's north shore, providing access to the stunning Road to Hana, the Haleakala volcanic crater at sunrise, and the historic whaling town of Lahaina. Maui's beaches are consistently rated among the best in the world.

A tender port on the Big Island's sunny Kona Coast, ships anchor in Kailua Bay with views of Hualalai volcano. Popular excursions include snorkeling at Kealakekua Bay, visiting a Kona coffee farm, and exploring Hawaii Volcanoes National Park.

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.
