cb at sea Posted August 2, 2010 #2 Share Posted August 2, 2010 All of the tours seem to be in the 5 hour range....there are many different tours/ways to get there. Google " Passion island, Cozumel" for LOTS of info! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eng23 Posted August 2, 2010 #3 Share Posted August 2, 2010 I cruised on Grandeur of the Seas last December and did the Passion Island excursion. It lasted about 4 hours, 5 counting the travel time from the cruise terminal. Spent about 3 hours on the beach including a great 1 hour massage. It is a very secluded area, plenty of space, great hammocks, small shops, and a great buffet lunch! Enjoy your trip! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silvercrikhix Posted August 2, 2010 #4 Share Posted August 2, 2010 DH & I did this excursion in March. It was about 5 hours. This included nearly an hour wait for the tour people "collecting" everyone together in the port area (or whatever they were doing, it was a large waste of time!). The Twister ride over & back is about 25 minutes each way and a BLAST! The drivers are very engaging and have the best job in the world! The island is great. Food good. Drinks good. Besides the huge wait for the excursion to begin, our only other real complaint is that when our group arrived at the beach, all of the hammocks, sand loungers, beach beds, etc... were claimed, saved or what have you. We found a table and made do until others left. Our thought was that next time we would see if the other ways over to the island would get us there earlier!!! There is a ferry, I believe. At any rate.....go and enjoy it......we WOULD do it again & again!!! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sailingawaysoon Posted August 4, 2010 #6 Share Posted August 4, 2010 We were there last year and it was a catamaran that took us over. We booked thru Royal Caribbean. The ride over was about 30 mins and we had approx 4 hours to enjoy the beach, explore and have unlimited food and drinks. The chicken and fish are awesome. They also have exotic fruits, desserts and chips/salsa etc. It was a very nice time and we are doing it again in September thru the cruise line. Based on the condition though of some of the people that were on our excursion last year (after having 4 hours of an open bar), I wouldn't have wanted to go on a twister ride back w/them...they could barely walk. Have a wonderful time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon Stebens Posted August 4, 2010 #7 Share Posted August 4, 2010 We have done the Passion Island twice and has been very nice. We stayed both time aprox 4 hrs. Just a bumpy dirt road ride getting to this location. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
