Azamara Quest: 17-Night from San Diego - May 24, 2027

You'll have 9 hours hours to explore Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm - a solid full day ashore. That's enough for 2-3 attractions and a sit-down lunch without rushing. Tackle the most distant spot first, then work your way back toward the port. Boat rides, beach time, shopping, and fresh seafood are all within reach.

Arriving in Acapulco, Mexico at 1:00 pm with only 7 hours hours before your 8:00 pm departure is a tight window. A ship-arranged shore excursion is the safest play here - you'll get priority disembarkation, and the ship will wait for its own excursions to return. Focus on one or two experiences close to the port. Cruise ships dock at the Acapulco International Cruise Terminal, located near the main bay and close to downtown.

As a smaller vessel, the Azamara Quest means a quicker disembarkation in Puerto Quetzal, Guatemala - fewer passengers funneling through the gangway gets you off the ship faster. Keep in mind that other, larger ships may be in port the same day, so pre-booking excursions or transportation is still a smart move. Stroll through Puerto Quetzal's markets to discover colorful produce, handmade crafts, and traditional Guatemalan goods.

Your ship arrives in Acajutla, El Salvador at 8:00 am, one of the most common arrival windows. If you've booked a morning excursion, aim to be among the first off. If your plans are flexible, waiting 30-45 minutes lets the initial wave pass. Roads are generally straightforward, and travel times are reasonable due to compact geography.

With 13 hours hours in Puntarenas, Costa Rica - from 8:00 am to 9:00 pm - you have a full day ashore with room to breathe. Go beyond the typical tourist stops: neighborhoods, local dining, and cultural sites that most cruise visitors never reach. Leave time for unstructured wandering. Cruise ships dock at Puntarenas port, conveniently close to the city center.

As a smaller vessel, the Azamara Quest means a quicker disembarkation in Panama Canal, Panama - fewer passengers funneling through the gangway gets you off the ship faster. Keep in mind that other, larger ships may be in port the same day, so pre-booking excursions or transportation is still a smart move. The Miraflores Locks Visitor Center offers observation decks and exhibits detailing the canal's operation.

On a smaller ship, the disembarkation process moves quickly - most passengers are off within one to two hours. If you're flying out, book your flight at least four hours after the ship's scheduled arrival. Beyond history, Cartagena offers Caribbean flavors, warm hospitality, and ocean views that balance the urban energy.
