Los Angeles cruise port guide

Terminal and location
The Los Angeles Cruise Terminal is in San Pedro, at Harbor Boulevard and Swinford Street. Los Angeles and Long Beach are different cruise ports; check which one your itinerary names.
Airport and transport
The port lists LAX and Long Beach Airport among the nearby transit centres and publishes bus connections serving San Pedro. Choose the transfer for your actual cruise terminal rather than an airport code alone.
Before embarkation
Verify the terminal and check-in window with your operator. If leaving a car at the port, account for the different arrival city on a one-way cruise.
