Pacific Coastal
Coastal cruises are easily accessible and a fantastic way to experience the west coast. Comprised of mostly "repositioning cruises," these voyages only occur about twice a year, between April and May and September and October. You're bound to enjoy this break from the ordinary. Explore the lush green vineyards, the sophisticated boutiques and restaurants or areas known for redwood forests and diverse wildlife. Also home to urban attractions, the Pacific Northwest too boasts museums, quaint boutiques and thriving arts and music scenes. From California north to Oregon, Washington, and British Columbia, you're sure to enjoy everything a coastal cruise has to offer—from the Hollywood excitement to towering evergreens and majestic mountains.
