It also docks at Cabo San Lucas, Mazatlán and Puerto Vallarta each for one full day. The staff are all welcoming and go out of their way daily to ensure passengers are taken care of.

Out of the eight days of cruising, three days are spent at sea, three days are spent on land, and two days are spent at the home port in Los Angeles. Upon boarding, you'll immediately noticed the staff - they greet you with smiles and take care of any concerns or needs right away. This excellent service is upheld for the entire duration of the trip and makes a lasting impression.
After almost two days at sea, the first stop on the cruise is Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. You can eat, snorkel and even see a couple of whales! This excursion is highly recommended. The second stop is Mazatlan, you can spend the day on the beach and walk around the city. On your way back to the boat, you can stop for drinks and appetizers at Plaza Machado. The third and final stop is Puerto Vallarta, where you can lay out on the beach and do some shopping. To end the trip, there are two full days at sea, slowly making your way back to Los Angeles, California. You can spend this time tanning, watching movies in the theatre and participating in various trivia games. Bingo, ice shows, competitions and plays are also offered. Royal Caribbean sure makes it impossible to be bored on vacation!
There are about 4,000 passengers and 1,200 crew members aboard Royal Caribbean's Navigator of the Seas ship. The ship itself holds 15 decks, two pools and numerous restaurants and bars.
