On your very cruise! :D Come check us out on the roll call board and say "Hi!"

I was wondering how long I'd be here before I ran into someone cruising with us next week! Nice to "meet" you. Thank you for the advice as well.

Thanks guys! This is exactly what we're looking for, info like this. We're in port 7:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. that day. After 3 excursion days in a row the days before, we just want to take it easy in Costa Maya. I know we'll at least get off the boat and look around, if for no other reason than to turn on the cell phones and check in with the kids back home. (Yes, we've got the international calling added to our line) We're just very pale people, I've got a history of skin cancer, so we avoid beach settings with direct sunlight for several hours. The idea of a boardwalk stroll sounds awesome! I really appreciate the help :)

We're touring Mayan Chichen Itza on our Cozumel stop earlier in the week.

Thanks for the info. Maybe we'll just enjoy Costa Maya from the boat :)

Hi :) We're preparing for our first cruise and would love some advice for our day in Costa Maya. We're NOT looking to spend the day at the beach however. We were sort of thinking we'd be able to just play it by ear. Shopping, dining, local sightseeing, etc. I've read up and I see that Costa Maya is a small port. What would you recommend for a couple looking to spend 6-7 hours on our own, not at the beach?

Thanks!
