San Pedro harbor paths, maritime history, a battleship.
Los Angeles sails from the World Cruise Center at San Pedro, in the harbour south of the city, not from anywhere near the parts of Los Angeles people picture. It is about forty minutes from the airport with no traffic and considerably more with it. Mexican Riviera itineraries and repositioning sailings leave from here.

San Diego docks downtown at the Embarcadero, so the USS Midway, the Gaslamp Quarter and the waterfront are all on foot. Balboa Park and the zoo are a short ride and need most of a day between them.
Ways to spend your day
Embarcadero Marina Park North
Enjoy a selected park section and the waterfront setting.
USS Midway Museum
Choose available hangar, flight-deck or other exhibits suited to your visit.
Maritime Museum of San Diego
Choose open ships and exhibits suitable for your access needs.
Harbor views, maritime history and marine life on the wharf.
Santa Barbara is a tender port on California's coast: visiting cruise ships anchor offshore and passengers come ashore by boat at Sea Landing in the harbor. Allow time for tender queues and confirm the final return boat for your sailing.
Ways to spend your day
Harbor waterfront
Choose a short waterfront visit near the harbor.
Santa Barbara Maritime Museum
Make the harbor museum the main indoor visit.
Stearns Wharf and Sea Center
Choose selected aquarium exhibits with a brief wharf pause.
Maritime galleries, a lightship, or Coxcomb Hill’s column grounds.
Astoria is a historic town at the mouth of the Columbia River in Oregon. The Columbia River Maritime Museum, the Astoria Column and Victorian houses are local draws.
Ways to spend your day
Columbia River Maritime Museum galleries
Selected open galleries in the main maritime-museum building.
Lightship Columbia
Currently authorised public visitor areas aboard Lightship Columbia.
Victoria is usually a late call, often arriving in the evening, because US law requires a foreign port on a round trip from Seattle and this is the nearest one. That shapes the day: the Inner Harbour lit up is lovely, Butchart Gardens after dark in season is better than it sounds, and anything needing daylight will not happen.
Ways to spend your day
Inner Harbour causeway
Enjoy a selected public causeway section and the harbour setting.
Royal BC Museum
Choose open exhibits rather than assuming every historic gallery is available.
Beacon Hill Park
Select a manageable park section and respect protected habitats.
Vancouver is the prettiest embarkation in this catalog and the most convenient: Canada Place is downtown, under the white sails on the waterfront, with the city on three sides of it. It is the southern end of the Inside Passage, so the scenery starts the moment you leave. The season runs May to September.
Ways to spend your day
Stanley Park
Choose suitable public paths and views, with the return connection arranged in advance.
Granville Island Public Market
Browse available market vendors and choose an optional break.
Vancouver Art Gallery
Explore selected open galleries at the current Hornby Street location.
