<p>Following a summer spent in Alaska and Hawaii, Carnival Spirit&nbsp;is returning to San Diego for round-trip four- to nine-day cruises along Mexico&rsquo;s Pacific Coast beginning Oct. 8, 2010.<span></span></p>
<p>The four-night cruises include a stop at Cabo&nbsp;San Lucas, while  five-night voyages feature both Cabo San Lucas and Ensenada. &nbsp;Both of  these destinations are known for their lush landscapes, gorgeous  white-sand beaches and seemingly endless array of on-shore experiences.</p>
<p>On eight- and nine-day cruises, Carnival Spirit&nbsp;will  visit some of Mexico&rsquo;s hottest destinations, including Acapulco,  Cabo&nbsp;San Lucas, La Paz, Mazatlan and Puerto Vallarta.&nbsp; These voyages  feature some of Mexico&rsquo;s most breathtaking sights, including miles of  sun-kissed beaches, luxurious waterfront resorts, and the beautiful  Sierra Madre mountains.</p>
<p>Carnival Spirit&rsquo;s  San Diego-based program will run through Apr. 1, 2011, after which it  will sail two 12-day Hawaii cruises followed by another season of seven-day Glacier Route cruises from Seattle beginning May 4, 2011.</p>
