Carnival Cruises Announces Additional Sailings From Long Beach

LONG BEACH, CA -- Carnival Cruise Line on Oct. 5 opened for sale future sailings from Long Beach on the ships Carnival Panorama, Carnival Radiance and Carnival Firenze.

The newly announced offerings include six- and eight-day itineraries on the Panorama from May 2025 through April 2026 and feature a wider variety of options and destinations from Long Beach, including Cabo San Lucas, Puerto Vallarta, La Paz and Ensenada.

“Long Beach is one of our top homeports, and now with the upcoming addition of Carnival Firenze joining Carnival Panorama and Carnival Radiance in Long Beach, we’re able to further diversify our offering, welcome more guests aboard and give them more options from the West Coast,” Fred Stein, Carnival’s vice president of revenue planning and deployment, said.

The new sailings feature a wide range of itineraries that visit the Mexican Riviera and Baja Mexico. The following is a sampling of what each ship will offer beginning in May 2025:

Carnival Firenze

Carnival Firenze will offer four-day cruises visiting Catalina Island and Ensenada, Mexico as well as five-day Mexican Riviera cruises calling in Cabo San Lucas and Ensenada, Mexico. The cruises are now open for sale between the spring and fall months of 2025.

Carnival Firenze joins the fleet sailing from Long Beach in May 2024, according to Carnival Cruises.

Carnival Panorama

Carnival Panorama, which currently operates seven-day sailings, will now alternate between six- and eight-day itineraries departing Saturdays and Sundays beginning in the spring of 2025 and are now open for sale into the spring of 2026. The six-day sailings to Mexico will feature itineraries calling in Ensenada and two days in Cabo San Lucas while the eight-day cruises will sail guests to Cabo San Lucas, La Paz, Mazatlán and Puerto Vallarta.

Alternating three- and four-night cruises, nearly 50 new getaways to Ensenada, Mexico are available on Carnival Radiance from the spring to the fall of 2025. The ship’s three-day weekend cruises departing Fridays visit Ensenada while the four-day cruises call in Ensenada and add a stop in Catalina Island.
