Coz - Paradise Beach - here is the report from another cruiser which made me more comfortable about booking our own .
Cozumel - Paradise Beach is wonderful!
Hi,
Just wanted to let everyone know that Paradise Beach in Cozumel is just
as great as all the rave reviews I've seen have mentioned! It's just 10
minutes from the International pier (I was sailing on the RCI Enchantment
of the Seas) and the taxi only cost $12 (no tipping taxi drivers either
in Cozumel!). When you're driving there, you see a lot of very dense bush
on the sides of the road and then all of a sudden, it all opens up and
you see lots of beautiful palm trees! This is the entrance to Paradise
Beach!
The beach is just beautiful; lots of white sand, the water is great,
there are lots of lounges with umbrellas and small tables. We arrived at
around 11:30am and were able to grab a few water mattresses. The bar and
restaurant were very nice too, and the washrooms and changerooms were
VERY clean. We ordered tortilla chips, salsa, a hamburger and a spicy
chicken wrap and they were delicious! The food portions were quite
generous as well! The service was great; it only took around 20 minutes
to get our food and the waiter served it to us right on the beach!
There's a trampoline and an inflated iceberg that you can climb in the
water. There were also kayaks that you could use. TI would caution you to
be careful when you enter the water, especially if you are not close to
the iceberg. It's kind of rocky when you first get in and kind of
slippery. But once you go 1 or 2 feet in, it's nice and sandy. The entry
is much easier if you're right by the iceberg.
And this is all for free! You only pay for food and drinks and T shirts.
They also have services such as massages that are $1 per minute. This is
a beautiful beach and you just can't beat the price! I think that for 3
adults, we only spent $40! I had booked a shore excursion with RCI to
Playa Del Sol, and the entrance fee itself was $37 Canadian for each of
us! This fee didn't include food or drinks either!
So if you want a nice beach to visit in Cozumel, make sure you go to
Paradise Beach! The fellow that runs it, Tom, is very nice as well and is
always making sure everyone is comfortable and has everything they need.
traycie2201, you had posted earlier asking for feedback re Cozumel and
Key West, so I just had to tell you about Cozumel! Re Key West, we took
the Conch Train and it was great! It was nice and cool and the guide was
hilarious! We really enjoyed it and found out all sorts of interesting
things about the history of Key West, their historical and more famous
homes and saw gorgeous plants, flowers and trees! We actually meant to
take the Trolley Tour which allowed you to get off at different stops,
but we mistakenly got on the Conch train which doesn't let you off. But
in a way, it worked out for us because we kind of enjoyed just staying on
the train and out of the heat!
If anyone has any questions, please don't hesitate to ask!
