    Sample Ports of Call/Shore Excursions
    Puerto Vallarta, Mexico

    The quintessential Mexican resort, "PV" is the darling of the Riviera. Stroll cobblestone streets lined with chic boutiques and galleries. Explore the bustling City Market. Or while away the afternoon on a white sand beach.

    • Dolphin Encounter: Board an air-conditioned minibus for a short drive to the Nuevo Vallarta Marina. At the aquatic museum you will listen to a presentation explaining some of the mysteries surrounding the wonderful world of marine mammals. By using the "hydrophone", you will be linked live to the dolphin tank and be able to listen to their fascinating language. Head down to the dock to a 14,500-square foot holding pen, and as you stand waist- deep in the water, you will be introduced to the beautiful Pacific bottlenose dolphin in a hands-on close encounter. They are as curious about you as you are about them, and you can take full advantage of this unique opportunity to pet them gently. During the encounter, you will learn ways to ensure their preservation and foster the well- being of these amazing creatures.
    Mazatlan, Mexico

    Home of Mexico's largest shrimp fleet and numerous beachside restaurants specializing in this tasty crustacean. Bargain at the massive city market, where the price of the day depends on your powers of persuasion. Explore the historic colonial villages of Sierra Madres.

    • Mazatlan Sportfishing Tournament : More than 9,000 billfish are caught in the waters off Mazatlan every year, with marlin running from November to May and sailfish from April to November. With the record marlin catch set at 1,200 lbs, this is an ideal location for old pros to try their luck, and for hopeful beginners to experience the thrill of a catch. Board a 43-foot fishing boat with radio and safety equipment on board. Your experienced crew will pilot you to the fishing grounds and provide tackle and bait, as well as fishing tips if needed. Water, ice and limited beer and sodas will be provided on board, and your cruise ship will provide a snack lunch for you to take along. Non-fishing observers or companions may ride along at a reduced fare.
    Cabo San Lucas, Mexico

    At the tip of Baja where the Sea of Cortez meets the blue Pacific. The sea's the thing here. Fishing for marlin, snorkeling, boating to Los Arcos, the spectacular rock formations that are home to barking sea lions and seals.

    • Sea Kayak Eco-Adventure: The rugged coastline, crystal blue water and diverse marine life make Cabo San Lucas Bay the best place to learn and practice sea kayaking. It's a short, pleasant paddle away to the magnificent "Los Arcos", a dramatic natural rock monument that arches starkly out of the sea at Land's End. Pristine beaches and towering rock formations offer a remarkable and unforgettable sightseeing experience. Easily paddling your two-person kayaks will take you across the San Lucas Bay, an underwater park and marine sanctuary, and to famed Lovers' Beach. Only accessible by water, Lovers' Beach is one of the few beaches in the world that joins two seas: the Sea of Cortes and the Pacific Ocean. Snorkeling gear, instruction and a bottle of water will also be provided.
