PUERTO VALLARTA, Mexico — The Seabourn Encore, a 210-meter-long cruise ship carrying hundreds of passengers, docked at Pier 1 in Puerto Vallarta this Sunday as part of a 43-day itinerary that will span two continents and visit 16 ports in seven countries. Arriving from Long Beach and greeted warmly by staff from Asipona Puerto Vallarta, the vessel’s next scheduled stop is Huatulco, in the state of Guerrero.
Originally departing from Kobe-Osaka, Kyoto, Japan on March 16, the Seabourn Encore’s epic journey will end in Miami, Florida, on April 28. Along the way, it is calling on five Japanese ports, four in the United States, one each in Guatemala, Costa Rica, Panama, and Colombia, and three ports in Mexico—Puerto Vallarta, Huatulco, and Puerto Chiapas. These three Mexican stops are part of the sister ports within the National Port System.
The Seabourn Encore has 266 cabins across seven levels, providing accommodations for 532 to 638 passengers. It arrived in Puerto Vallarta at 7 a.m. on Sunday, April 13, allowing travelers to make the most of a sunny day exploring the city’s vibrant historic center and the region’s famed natural attractions, from lush mountains to pristine beaches.
Following its day-long stay, the cruise ship set sail at 11 p.m. to continue its journey through the remaining ports on its way to Florida. This visit underlines Puerto Vallarta’s ongoing appeal as a major Mexican tourist destination and important stop for cruise lines traversing the Americas.
