PACKMYBAGS Posted November 18, 2009 #1 Share Posted November 18, 2009 We will be traveling to Cozumel and Costa Maya on Oasis this September. We want to find beaches with calm water for our 3yr old and 18 month old. Please let me know if there are any that are within walking distance or if we would be better off taxing taxi on our own or booking an excursion. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks -Katie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MamaParrotHead Posted November 19, 2009 #2 Share Posted November 19, 2009 We're taking our kids to Chankanaab in Cozumel. Their website has more details. Lots to see and do, a playground right on the beach. Fresh water pool, clean facilities and some neat animals to interact with or just watch.

PACKMYBAGS Posted November 20, 2009 Author #4 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Thank you both for your responses. I looked both of them up on-line and they both look great. It will be a tough decision! Enjoy your cruises! -Katie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asylum575 Posted November 20, 2009 #5 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Chankanaab had a really nice shallow lagoon for kids, I'm not sure if it's still there. The storms of 2005 and 2006 really beat up the area. Last year we went to Paradise beach. We had a great time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A&Jfamily Posted November 26, 2009 #6 Share Posted November 26, 2009 Chankanaab had a really nice shallow lagoon for kids, I'm not sure if it's still there. The storms of 2005 and 2006 really beat up the area. Last year we went to Paradise beach. We had a great time. It does still have the small shallow area. But most of the beach is on a bulkhead, and not suitable for kids that age as there is no sand; you wald down steps carved from the coral to get in. I have not been to NC, so I can't compair, but we really did like Chankanaab. My kids enjoyed searching for iguanas around the lagoon and running the trails. Of course, nothing topped the dolphin encounter. My youngest was 4 at the time, and while he had daddy hold him, he thought it was neat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2112 Posted November 27, 2009 #7 Share Posted November 27, 2009 We are going to Nachi Cocom in Cozumel. All the reviews I have read have been FABULOUS! I just got back from Nachi Cocum with my 3.5 year old. You should be aware that the beach drops off to deep water very quickly. We really couldn't take our eye off out son for even a second there. They do have a nice pool there however. The beach in town at Costa Maya is absolutely perfect for young children. It is shallow for a long ways out, warm and clear. The sand is nice and restaurants let you use their chairs and shade for free as long as you buy food or drinks from them. We had a perfect beach day there and my son probably never had more fun than he had there that day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
