It includes calls to well-known favorites as well as lesser known ports like Loreto. The Pacific Coast Season spotlights visits to the fjord-like waterways of British Columbia's Great Bear Rainforest. Koningsdam and Zaandam will sail the Mexico season, offering 16 departures on a variety of eight different itineraries ranging from seven to 12 days. The cruises, which explore the Mexican Riviera, the Baja Peninsula and the Sea of Cortez, all sail either roundtrip from San Diego, California, or open-jaw between San Diego and Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. "San Diego is an important homeport for Holland America Line and provides an exceptional experience to our guests," said Paul Grigsby, HAL’s VP of revenue planning and deployment. "From San Diego, travelers can explore picturesque Cabo San Lucas, take in the history of Loreto and more all while enjoying our premium onboard experience." Guests can further explore through shore excursions in each port. From Mazatlan, a full-day tour to the Colonial Villages of the Sierra Madre is available, showcasing Malpica, Concordia and Copala to further delve into the history of the region. For an escape from civilization, Majahuitas Cove Catamaran Snorkel & Yelapa Bay Beach is the perfect fit. Majahuitas Cove, accessible only by sea, will entice visitors with its warm water, gentle surf and abundant sea life, while Yelapa is a charming Mexican fishing village. Eleven itineraries ranging from one to seven days provide the perfect escape to explore the Pacific Coast. Cruises are available on five ships, which will sail from San Diego, Seattle and Vancouver on a variety of roundtrip and open-jaw voyages. Cruises call at popular ports like Astoria, Oregon; Santa Barbara, and Ensenada, Mexico; and select itineraries feature an overnight in San Francisco. Guests can also choose from two departures of a 7-Day Great Bear Rainforest voyage aboard Noordam, sailing roundtrip from Seattle. The cruise, calling at Ketchikan, Alaska, as well as a number of ports in British Columbia, provides guests with the opportunity to view wildlife like whales, eagles and the rare white-furred Kermode bear — also known as the spirit bear. In addition, those aboard Noordam will experience a highly-sought-after but rare chance to sail the historic Inside Passage, including Bella Bella and the Grenville Channel. "Seattle's our hometown, and these itineraries will show that," said Grigsby.
