About This Cruise
The 16 Night Panama Canal is a 16-night one-way itinerary aboard Holland America Eurodam. You board in San Diego and disembark in Fort Lauderdale, calling at 10 ports across 7 countries along the way.
In sequence the voyage takes in California (San Diego), Mexico (Cabo San Lucas), El Salvador (Acajutia), Mexico (Huatulco, Puerto Chiapas), Guatemala (Puerto Quetzal), Costa Rica (Puerto Caldera) and 2 more.
As a one-way sailing you'll fly into San Diego and home from Fort Lauderdale, so it's worth checking the two gateways before you book. Longer hops are crossed on the 7 days at sea, keeping daylight hours for the ports. Sailing dates, cabin availability and fares vary by season — use Check Dates & Prices for live pricing, or call our team to talk through the options.
