side trip recomendations for western Fantasy trip?

[Clayton James Johnson]

Hi all, we are booked for the Fantasy next month (Feb 20th cruise) are there any side trip recommendations you can make? We did the Fantasy's eastern Caribbean about 2 years ago and loved Captain Bob's boat trip (booked through Travelocity from another cruisers recommendation) and we are looking for something to plan on either GC or Cozomel for a family of 4 kids are ages 9 &7.

Thanks for your help!

We did Stingray City through Captain Marvin's in GC and loved it! Our kids were 10 and 7 at the time and had a blast. Much cheaper than booking through Disney and very professional. The office is about a 5-10 minute walk once you get off the ship. You can check their website and email them with questions. They have special times for the Disney cruises and work around the port times.

Are you planning on doing anything in Jamaica? I've got the same itinerary in August and can't find anything that looks interesting for my family in or near Falmouth. FWIW, we are doing a dolphin encounter at Chankanaab. If you book directly with them by the end of January, I think they are running a 25% off promotion.

For Grand Cayman be careful with the port times. We sail later this month and the port times for Grand Cayman are really short. I had trouble finding a tour operator for the stingrays that would work. Not to say there isn't one out there or there are plenty of other things to do on Grand Cayman. We ended up booking with DCL this time.

On Cozumel we always take a taxi to Paradise Beach on our own.

For grand Cayman I highly recommend Nativeway Sports. They were truly awesome people. They only have small groups (we had the boat to ourselves-6 of us) and after we saw some of the boats packed like sardines we were so glad we weren't on those other boats! We went to stingray city, snorkeling at a reef, and to starfish beach. Absolutely amazing day!!
