Ports of Call

Los Angeles (Days 1, 5)

It's an exciting semitropical city of palm trees, swimming pools, television studios and aerospace factories. Los Angeles is one of the world's most exciting cities and the movie-making capital of the world. Wherever you visit, from ritzy Beverly Hills to the wondrous Hollywood Bowl, you'll have an unforgettable stay.

Attractions & Activities

No trip to L.A. is complete without a stop in Disneyland. This world-famous park has been a favorite of children - and adults - for generations. While you're there, you should stop by Disney's California AdventureSM park. This newest Disney park is an idealized version of California, from its gold-mining history to its colorful present.

Catalina Island (Day 2)

Catalina has been a favorite destination of yatchmen since the turn of the century. Go for a stroll along the breezy old boardwalk. Or enjoy a cup of cappuccino in a sunny sidewalk cafe. You'll delight in the islands quaint, storybook architecture, and in its colorful atmosphere.

Attractions & Activities

Join an exploration of Catalina Island's coastline onboard a motorized rigid-hull inflatable raft. There is a good chance you'll encounter the island's bald eagles, harbor seals, sea lions, red tail hawks and other local wildlife. View Long Point, Italian Gardens, Goat Harbor, and Rippers Cove. Then continue two to three miles offshore in search of dolphins during the ride back to Avalon.

Ensenada (Day 4)

Once a sleepy fishing village, Ensenada and its sheltered bay are popular as a haven for weekend sailors and a site for "Gringo" vacations resorts. Its dusty streets bustle with the promise of duty-free shopping that features Mexican crafts and folk art.

Attractions & Activities

For one of the most amazing sights in Ensenada, travel through the city and into the countryside, past farms and olive groves, to "La Bufadora," or blowhole. This fascinating natural phenomenon shoots water through crevices formed in the rock face of the cliff.
