The Pacific Coast Campaign refers to United States naval operations against targets along Mexico's Pacific Coast during the Mexican–American War. It excludes engagements of the California Campaign in areas of The Californias north of the Baja California Peninsula. The objective of the campaign was to secure the Baja Peninsula of Mexico, and to blockade/capture west-coast ports of Mexico—especially Mazatlan, a major port-of-entry for imported supplies. The resistance of Mexican forces to the north in the Los Angeles area and the lack of ships, soldiers and logistical support prevented an early occupation of the peninsula and the west-coast Mexican seaports. The U.S. Navy attempted blockades of the ports three times before being able to successfully blockade and/or occupy them.

  • La Campaña del Pacífico (en Inglés: Pacific Coast Campaign) se refiere a las operaciones navales de los Estados Unidos contra objetivos a lo largo de la costa del Pacífico de México durante la Intervención estadounidense en México.​ Se excluyen los compromisos de la en áreas de Las Californias al norte de la península de California. El objetivo de la campaña era asegurar la península de Baja California en México y bloquear/capturar los puertos de la costa oeste de México, especialmente Mazatlán, un importante puerto de entrada para los suministros importados. La resistencia de las fuerzas mexicanas al norte en el área de Los Ángeles y la falta de barcos, soldados y apoyo logístico impidieron una pronta ocupación de la península y los puertos marítimos de la costa oeste de México.
