New Year's on the Mexican Riviera with Crystal Cruises
9-Nights aboard the Crystal Serenity
12/30/26 - 1/8/27
Ring in the New Year in style—no flights required... (from San Diego)
Step aboard the newly reimagined Crystal Serenity, departing right from San Diego, and cruise into 2027 wrapped in luxury.
This Baja Peninsula voyage is tailor-made for those who crave indulgence, adventure, and effortless elegance.
Ease into the rhythm of the sea with two serene days onboard, where your personal butler, Michelin-inspired dining, and open bars set the tone.
And on the first sea day—New Year’s Eve itself—the ship comes alive with a glamorous celebration at sea.
Picture an elegant evening of music, dancing, champagne toasts, all under the stars without lifting a finger!
Then, drop anchor in Manzanillo—where golden beaches and deep-sea thrills await.
In Puerto Vallarta, soak in the inclusive, laid-back spirit of this coastal gem.
Then it’s on to Mazatlán, where colonial charm meets a vibrant seafood scene.
Finally, Cabo San Lucas delivers a showstopping finale with breaching whales and dramatic sea cliffs.
This is more than a cruise—it’s a celebration of the season, set against a backdrop of sun, sea, and sophistication.
Space is limited, so reserve your suite now and toast the New Year aboard one of the world’s most beloved luxury ships.
