Favorite Cozumel Excursion?

[disneystyle]

We're leaving in just a few days..... Can anybody suggest something really fun for just my husband and I and also a suggestion if we decide to take the kids along. dd 6 ds 4. Is this a good place to visit with the dolphins?

In Grand Cayman we are hooked up with Native Way to go snorkeling and to see Stingray City. Any other suggestions here too?
Thanks guys !!! My brain is fried trying to pack, clean, put Christmas away, prepare for big New YEar's Eve Bash, in the middle of trying to leave our house presentable to have shown to potential buyers while we are cruising. Auug!!!

For $5 per person (day pass)

In GC you can snorkel there too, or visit the popular Turtle Farm and Hell.

Fury Catamaran was TOO much fun!!

We cruised last week. My dds - 13 and 17, did the Swim with the Dolphins privately through Dolphin Discovery. It was (outside of being on the Magic itself) their most memorable event. DH and I enjoyed watching them - but we had several friends who did this excursion also and had a blast!

We also went to Mr. Sanchos' -- good food, great beach and lots to do.

Have fun!

We did the Dolphin Encounter on Chakanaab thru Disney and our kids 5, 6, 15, and 14 yr old friend loved it. The park is really nice as well. My mom did the Fury Catamaran and loved it as well.

We took a taxi or i should say 6 of them (there were 20something of us) to Mr Sanchos Beach. We had the best time there....jet skiing, Banana Boat rides, Atv rides, great food and service (this was very inexpensive). All in all a great day!!

Sidebar: We used NativeWay Sports on our Christmas Cruise and they were great!! We took "Dave in the Frozen North's" suggestion (again) and couldn't have been happier. We had just myself, DD (8), DS (16) and DH for a 3 hour tour.

Sharon picked us up and we drove to the Yacht Club. Our boat was very clean and open. They had a great punch (which both kids wanted us to stop and buy to take back) and water for us aboard our boat.

DH had bought DD her own snorkeling mask set at a Dive Shop but there seem to be a problem with her mask and she was getting pretty frustrated. Our guides took her back aboard, fitted her with one of theirs and she was fine.

Both of our guides were patient and really spent alot of time snorkeling with us to attract the fish so we could really see all there was and then at Stingray City..................they made that adventure. I can't wait to see how the pics turn out. DD did great at Stingray City and loved it but she is slight and did get knocked about by the waves a bit if I didn't stay right with her.

I think you are in for a treat!! By the way, be prepared for a little walk at first so wear comfortable shoes. Grand Cayman started this new policy where only buses can come near the piers at certain time. We had a bit of a walk to Sharon's vehicle but it wasn't bad and she was able to drop us right off on our return. Again, a really great experience!!
