Ship tip

In the event of emergency medical care; try to look for medical insurance to cover your cruise while on the cruise. Unfortunately we had to visit the medical Facility there a few times due to a kidney stone attack and it is very pricey. We submitted our claim through our provate insurance but the cruise line wants their money up front before leaving.

Ports of call

San Pedro (Los Angeles), California

No excursion but Acapulco has its issues. The people there are great but the city is very impoverished and not Much to see except the divers

Puerto Quetzal, Guatemala

5 out of 5

San Juan Del Sur, Nicaragua

3 out of 5
We ended up porting in Cortino because of strong winds in San Juan del sur somwe had to do a different excursion which was awesome but the port wasnโ€™t that nice. Shipping containers all over the place.
