Should I be concerned about safety on my Carnival Cruise to Mexico?

Question:
Humans say...
Andrew
which cruise your taking
Eloise
Which stops are your ports of call? Use your street smarts. Leave expensive jewelry on the ship. do not leave expensive cameras in plain view. Travel in numbers when doing land excursions and perhaps carry a money belt. I find that southern Mexico is fine.

/puerto-vallarta and Cabo san Lucas

I believe the cruise line would alter ports of call if there was increased risk due to recent events. It should be fine...better than traveling by car within the country.

Puerto vallarta and Cabo san lucas is not mayan riviera. South & Southern of Mexico are safer. Stay away from the states of Sinaloa (Mazatlan is in this state) & Jalisco (Guadalajara and I would be cautious in Puerto Vallarta) it is not matter of being in groups but aware of your surroundings and if any violance, this is never against you so just leave the area. Also some people are not knowledgeable about the situation and recommend money belts, again, these are acts of protest to the government not you, so they don't seek your money

If you are doing PV and Cabo San Lucas you will be absolutely fine! We just got back from San Jose del Cabo near San Lucas and you have nothing to worry about. completely safe you can walk the streets, shop and check out the local bars and eateries. take a boat cruise out to El Arco, or a day trip up to Chileano Beach for snorkeling, or just walk Medano Beach to Tabasco's bar and book a catamaran 1 hour cruise out past the Arch. Lots to do and lots of fun to be had.

It is the cruise lines responsibility to keep their passengers safe....which means they will not stop at a port of it's too dangerous. When I used to work on board ships this has happened a couple of times. Passengers were upset...but why take the chance?

Just came back from PV and NV and didn't notice anything

Safety Concerns for Carnival Cruise to Mexico

Current Situation
While it's true that cartel violence has escalated in certain parts of Mexico, it's important to note that the areas frequented by cruise ships, such as Cozumel and Playa del Carmen, have not been significantly affected.
Carnival Cruise Lines takes the safety of its passengers very seriously and has implemented enhanced security measures on its ships and shore excursions.
Safety Tips
Here are some tips to help you stay safe during your cruise:
- Be aware of your surroundings and avoid walking alone at night.
- Stay in well-lit areas and avoid isolated streets.
- Don't carry large amounts of cash or貴重品.
- Book shore excursions through the cruise line to ensure they meet safety standards.
- Follow the instructions of your tour guide and ship's crew.
- If you witness any suspicious activity, report it to the authorities immediately.
Conclusion
While it's important to be informed about potential safety risks, it's also essential to not let fear prevent you from enjoying your vacation.
By following these safety tips and staying informed, you can help ensure a safe and memorable trip.
