Mexico’s Sea of Cortés

7-night island-hopping adventure cruise in Mexico’s Sea of Cortés

"When I got onboard I soon met many returning passengers and I quickly saw why—this is perfect! I love the flexibility of the schedule."

— Rosalie M., Cincinnati, OH (Mexico)

A WORLD OF RAW BEAUTY

Our inclusive island-hopping cruise in the Sea of Cortés showcases adventure, culture, and wildlife—boobies, pelicans, frigate birds; humpback, gray, pilot, and blue whales; whale sharks, dolphins, and sea lions. Paddle and hike along desert landscape. Snorkel with sea lion pups. Ride a mule into the arroyos with local rancheros. And discover firsthand how small the human presence here truly is.
