For the first time ever on the west coast, a beverage package is available for purchase for the GCFAM. The Groove Cruise Cabo 2018 drink package has been made available to make budgeting a bit easier for those sailing on next year’s west coast event.

How much is it? $89 per person, per day, plus 18% (or 20%?) gratuities and taxes. A test booking shows the total as $427.20. Is it worth it? That depends. I did some math on the drink package for Groove Cruise Miami 2018 here, so you can follow that thought process and see if the Groove Cruise Cabo 2018 drink package is worth it to you.

You can purchase this when you make your reservation or add it on later if you decide it’s worth it. Prices for the package may increase as the event approaches.
