Bring a long board for the big waves and a short one for fun on small-wave days. The 1,020-foot Mariner of the Seas, a ship of the Royal Caribbean line, offers frequent surf cruises, departing from the Port of Los Angeles (Long Beach, Calif.) for a seven-day voyage arranged by Paradise-Bound.net.

Cruisers of many distinct stripes coexisted comfortably. (The cruise liner even has outstanding amenities for disabled travelers).
