Cozumel port question

[detroitdad]

For those of you with experience with the western itinerary and Cozumel---do you have to tether in, or does the boat go to a dock? I was only able to get a 12pm dolphin swim at Chankanaab park and we have to be there by 11:30am. I think the cab takes about 20 minutes so wondering if we will be able to disembark in time to make it? I did not book this through Disney shore excursions and I've read that those who do get first dibs at getting off the boat. The cruise website says arrival is 10:30am. I'm thinking we'll be ok as long as the ship isn't late. Hope someone can help out with their experience.

Thanks

Last October we were at a dock. It looked like there were 3 different docks that could each handle a couple ships, but I think some ships were doing some tendering as well.

Here is a picture (captured today) of the Magic at the dock she normally uses at Cozumel.

Here is a link to the web site the picture was captured from.

Thanks for the replies! It seems like we should be OK with getting there by 11:30am.
