No sooner had I located the exotic-sounding Sea of Cortez after reading that The World is going to be there, than Azamara Cruises announced that it's going there too.
The World is spending 10 days in the Sea of Cortez next month; Azarama will be visiting on several voyages during the 2010-11 season, on cruises from Miami and San Diego.
It will be the first time any Royal Caribbean brands - the others are Royal Caribbean and Celebrity Cruises - have ventured into the sea, also known as the Gulf of California, which is famed for its marine life.
I suspect it is also the first time any large cruise brand has been there. But just wait. It only needs one cruiseline to take the plunge for a destination to zoom from zero to hero and a place on the next new hot spot list. Any bets on who will be next?

My money would be on Crystal, as they will have Crystal Symphony in the Sea of Cortez in 2010 (before Azamara).

In 2010 there will be two more cruise ships that have the same concept as The World. And they're bigger.
