KatWag Posted January 9, 2007 #1 Share Posted January 9, 2007 Hi Everyone, I think I've read here that one side of the ship is better for whale sightings in the Mexican Riviera. Does anyone remember which side? Thanks! Kathy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shunga Posted January 10, 2007 #2 Share Posted January 10, 2007 Can't help with whales, but port side was was the side facing shore for our night departure from PV on RCI. Nice fireworks and lots of camera flashes. Enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RLJPHX Posted January 10, 2007 #3 Share Posted January 10, 2007 I have taken the Mexican Riviera cruise and recommend the starboard side. Firstly, since day 1 at sea is rather cool, and day 2 is still not quite tropical, the sun feels good with shade being a bit uncomfortable. Since the ship is heading southeasterly, considering the winter sun, the port side balconies are shaded except in the early morning. On the other hand, the starboard balconies are in the nice warm sun from mid-day through the afternoon. The starboard balcony makes a great place to watch the sunset. Secondly, on the trip back up the coast, you're mostly sailing at night when the starboard balconies are shaded. Also, the starboard side is facing the shore, giving a good view as you enter and leave the ports. The starboard side gets a great view of Land's End when leaving Cabo. Hope this helps your decision.
