Western Itinerary

[CruiseRQA]

 

Leaving soon on the Oosterdam western itinerary.   I know there is a forum dedicated to the various ports but would value some advice from like-minded HAL aficionados.   We will be stopping at Cozumel, Grand Caymon and Montego Bay.   We enjoy the beach,  don't mind walking around a shopping area.  Not into expensive excursions but would be open to something not too pricey or time-consuming.  

 

Thanks in advance

Montego Bay. 

 

At this port:  Stay On The Ship!  Unless, of course, you enjoy being hassled by taxi drivers and offered drugs or whatever.  On my Nieuw Statendam cruise, several guests asked those of us who had been there before as to what to do and we all, without exception, said the same thing:  Jamaica is a beautiful island.  But, its citizenry makes the experience of the guest less than pleasant.

 

Speaking with a couple of those people after they returned, their response was "We wish we had listened to your advice".

Jared, as I explained in my OP, I am aware of dedicated forums for the various ports of call.   As I also explained, I am looking for input specifically from HAL cruisers.

Grand Cayman has great beaches and cabs are easy to get. Most charge about $5/pp to take you to the beach.
