Snorkling-Costa Maya?

[Bonnie J.]

We are leaving Friday, Nov. 4th, for cruise. Going to Costa Maya instead of Cozumel. Have been snorkling right there by port but never been to Majaual (sp?), the nearby town. There are beaches there but need to know if we should take our snorkling gear when we go to the town. Know they have beaches but how is snorkling and where is best place on beach for this?

If you go to Mahahual, do take your snorkeling gear. There is really only one l o n g sandy beach there, and while the snorkeling right off the beach isn't very good, there are people there that offer snorkeling from a boat trips for about $25 a person.

 

Here is my Costa Maya - Mahahual photo gallery if you are interested.
