Creator's Key Takeaways

San Diego, Southern California, Disney Cruise Line has made a long-term commitment to the port of San Diego and it's just really a lovely departure port.

We had a phenomenal time in Catalina Island. I mean, really, really phenomenal.

The San Diego Zoo is amazing. It was about a 10 maybe 15 minute drive to get to the zoo.

I highly highly recommend the San Diego Zoo. Loved loved loved every minute of it.

Come in the day before your departure to spend time in San Diego.
Arrive at the port around your port arrival time to avoid waiting outside.
