Here's a site to help get started. DCL has not set excursions yet. The following site lists DCL recommended excursions.

I'm sure they will come out with a formal excursion booklet closer to the cruise.

My opinion and suggestion, DO NOT do the horseback riding. I did and was eaten alive by fleas, it was horrible and I suffered through the rest of the cruise.

I would love to have an idea of what the prices are

From doing some research on CM, it sounds like there are some snorkeling excursions that you can pick up at the end of the pier for around $25. These were not pre-booked excursions. They had good reviews from the people on the boards. There are some Destination boards that you can find info on.

I have heard some bad reviews about the Uvero Beach excursions and the beach. The beach water is very full of sea grass. It is a 30 min. bus ride. And the drinks that are included in the excursions are watered down.

Tapas Bar is about 1 1/2 miles from the port. $3 pp one way. Chair rental $3. The food is really good, especially the salsa. Beer $2 and good drinks as well. Bathrooms are not good. You can rent snorkel equipment and wave runners. You can charter a boat for snorkeling from here. 30 min massages for $20. I believe there is no "admission charge" if you order something. They'll ask for a few bucks if you don't.

Maj. Beach-I'm sure you've seen the full spelling!!! 2 miles down the road. Again, $3 pp per way. Nice Bathrooms, wave runners and snorkeling tours available.

Tequila Beach-I believe this is apart of Maj. Beach, I'm not positive. Again, snorkeling and wave runners, supposedly an open-bar deal for $35, $5 for non alcoholic.

From what I have read, Maj. Beach is much nicer than Uvero Beach.

Beach Break Party-$25
Reef Snorkeling-$25
Horseback riding-$35 1 1/2 hrs.

I was in Costa Maya in April on a Royal Caribbean cruise, and I did an independent excursion to the Chacchoben Ruins that was wonderful! http://www.chacchobenruins.com
