The Port of Los Angeles in San Pedro is considered the busiest port of call in California and the west coast of the USA. From here you can cruise to many world destinations, but the more common ones include the Panama Canal, Mexico and Hawaii.

The World Cruise Center is found at Berths 91, 92, 93A and 93B in San Pedro, California. The address is 600 N. Harbor Blvd., San Pedro. It's about 20 miles south of LAX (Los Angeles International Airport) and 19 miles from the Long Beach Airport.

There's lots to see in San Pedro, such as Cabrillo Beach to Ports O'Call Village, just to name a couple. Read more about visiting San Pedro California.

Parking for the cruise center can be found at Lots 1 and 2 for 3-4 day cruises only, and Lots 6-8 for all others. There is a courtesy shuttle bus that will take you to the terminal from the parking lots.
