It was a rainy winter at our home on the Oregon coast, so we decided to hunt for some sun and sand on the west coast of Mexico. There’s a lot of ways to get to the famous Mexican Riviera. We decided on a Princess cruise, and we are so glad we did. Our cruise consisted of ten wonderful days of relaxation – first aboard the Grand Princess and then in the warm sun of four exciting south of the border ports – Puerto Vallarta, Mazatlán, Manzanillo, and Cabo San Lucas.

We knew we wanted to write about this vacation, but what aspects would our readers enjoy most? Hmmm.


There are thousands of travel articles written about each of the ports of call we would visit on our cruise. Type the word “Mazatlán” in Google Search and you will get over 130 million results in .62 seconds – how do they do that!


So rather than add to the mountain of available information about the ports of the Mexican Riviera, we will instead share our views on why we think cruising is the best way to get there.
