Ensenada Cruise from San Diego

Cruises to Ensenada from San Diego are short because the port in Mexico is only 70 miles south of San Diego. It is a prime destination for a quick getaway cruise.

Ensenada is a good place to enjoy "Baja Med" seafood, which is a blend of Mexican, Mediterranean and Asian cuisine. Also try the wine from local vineyards.

Watch a video about what to see, do and eat in Ensenada in 6 hours. The video is just 14 minutes long and is enlightening.

A wide variety of shore excursions are offered in Ensenada. Whale-watching is a big attraction. The gray whales winter in the warm waters. Guided boat tours are available.

Take a trip 20 miles south of Ensenada to La Bufadora. Waves breaking against the bottom of a cliff shoot water into the air up to 65 feet. Kayak excursions to La Bufadora blowhole are well reviewed.

Winery tours are available. For more excitement, try a wine country ATV adventure.

The winter is good for surfing in the area. Surfing lessons are very fun. Deep-sea fishing is another favorite activity for enthusiasts. Fishing boats are ready to take you on an excursion.
