Disney Cruise Line has confirmed an exciting lineup of itineraries from San Diego, California for late 2026 and early 2027.
Both the Disney Magic and the Disney Wonder will homeport here, offering a wide variety of Baja and Mexican Riviera cruises, plus some repositioning voyages.
I have to say that I am very excited about this as I had been hoping for this for a long time. As I live in San Diego this makes it very easy to take a cruise on either Disney Magic or Disney Wonder.
This is a major step for DCL to have a larger presence in the West Coast cruise market, which has been showing a significant upturn in recent years.
Whether you’re looking for a quick 3 night getaway or a longer adventure to the Mexican Riviera, San Diego will be a hub for Disney cruises during this season.
And don’t forget that the very popular Panama Canal Cruises are back – with Disney Magic sailing both East Bound and West Bound in this season.
I wanted to take a close look at the pricing for these cruises and this means that you will find pricing charts that help you decide which sailing is the best value for you.
Interestingly Disney Magic generally runs slightly higher per night than Wonder (especially on 3?4 night cruises in Sep–Oct 2026). Disney Wonder offers a little better per?night value overall, particularly on its 5–7 night San Diego itineraries.
But really the difference isn’t too much to make you choose one ship over the other.
All prices shown are for 2 guests and include taxes and fees. All prices are taken from the opening day prices – so most likely they will be different when you look at current pricing if it is past the opening day.
Disney Magic Sailings from San Diego
After completing her Alaska season, the Disney Magic repositions to San Diego in fall 2026. From here, she will operate a range of Baja and Mexican Riviera sailings before transitioning to Galveston in November. She will then return briefly to San Diego before sailing to Vancouver (presumably for the next season of Alaskan cruises).
