Download or read book Cruising the Mexican Riviera Baja written by Larry H. Ludmer and published by Hunter Publishing, Inc. This book was released on 2006 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I read the appropriate chapter before each port of call. The author gives you hints on problems you may face as well as encouraging you to see the important sights. I felt that with his guidance we didn't miss anything, and enjoyed the vacation spots much more. -- Judith Orlopp This is a very quick book to read about the ports you will be visiting. I read it on the airplane on the way to my cruise. It made my trip to the Mexican Riviera a pleasant experience with many helpful hints. -- Paula J. Down This book is a fine guide to cruising the Mexican Riviera and Baja California. It describes the main cruise ships, especially those on the Carnival, Celebrity, Holland-American, Norwegian, Princess, and Royal Caribbean lines. There's advice on climate, what to wear, both in port and on the ship, and the costs involved. And there are good descriptions of the ports. Anyway, I was on a one-week cruise and found the book very useful. The cruise prices were very reasonable (it was the off-season, but the weather was fine). Do not expect to get seasick: I rarely noticed that the ship was moving. Yes, I liked the food. And the Lido deck. And even the art auctions with the free champagne. As the book explains, cruises are often one week long, with stops in Puerto Vallarta, Mazatlan, and Cabo San Lucas. These leave from the Los Angeles area: mine started from Long Beach. It's fun being pampered and having all sorts of things to do on board. -- Jill Malter 336-page guide - the most detailed available on this subject. A unique cruise guide offering concise, easy-to-read information on every vessel plying the popular Mexican Riviera region this season. Ship facts include stateroom size, dining options, passenger/crew ratio, crew nationality, ship registry and even when the last refurbishment was completed. This candid book has done your homework for you, reviewing ship itineraries and making you aware of the highlights and potential pitfalls of every one. The author tells how to find bargain rates, when to book and makes you aware of considerations for disabled travelers, solo cruisers and being aboard with young children. Walking tours at each port of call are supplemented by detailed port maps. Ports of call include: Acapulco, Cabo San Lucas, Catalina Island, Ensenada, Ixtapa & Zihuatanejo, La Paz, Loreto, Manzanillo, Mazatln, Puerto Vallarta, Santa Rosala. Embarkation cities (such as San Francisco, Monterey, San Diego, Long Beach and more) are included. These combination cruise-sightseeing guides are among our bestsellers, perhaps because of their unique approach that offers in-depth information for the cruiser, plus thorough sightseeing details. The first half of each book is dedicated to the ships and what they offer - passenger/crew ratio, service, amenities, cruise routes, dining options, etc. It gives all the information you need to select a ship to suit your taste, style and budget. The rest of the book is dedicated to making the most of your time ashore, with tips on how to avoid crowds, trip planning and pitfalls to avoid. The authors even tell you which sites are not worth your time. Town maps.

Download or read book Charlie s Charts Western Coast of Mexico and Baja written by Holly Scott and published by Paradise Cay Publications. This book was released on 2015-11 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This all new edition is a totally updated cruising guide covering the entire Pacific coast of Mexico from The US Border, down the Baja Peninsula, around up into the Sea of Cortez all the way north to San Felipe, across to Puerto Penasco and south to Puerto Madero/Chiapas. There are 61 additional charts with extensive coverage of the Sea of Cortez, including Topolobampo and Altata on the mainland coast. The charts have valuable information on entrances, dinghy landings, marinas, dangers, ferry routes, anchorages, shore attractions and amenities, and GPS waypoints, to name a few. The introduction and appendices cover everything from entrance requirements, to sun protection, bug screens, radio frequencies, Spanish vocabulary, what to have onboard, fishing, how to deal with pets in paradise, and much more. And don't forget the QR codes, which are linked to videos, websites, marinas, city maps, and even whale watching information! Our guides are printed on uncoated paper for easy reading under red lights at night, as well as writing your own observations right on the page. Our covers and bindings allow the guides to lay flat and stay open without a winch handle to hold it down. There are enough color photos to get a feel for the area, but this is not a coffee table book. It is, however, an all inclusive cruising guide to Mexico for real cruisers on real cruising boats, who know the value of multiple sources of information backed up by real time experience.
