Can't wait to Cruise Saturday!!!


Recommended Posts

We are leaving on our 5th cruise with Carnival on Saturday on the Triumph out of New Orleans - 7 day Exotic Western Caribbean (Belize, Cozumel and Isla Roatan) Belize and Isla Roatan are new ports for us. Looking forward to relaxing, catching some rays, eating great food and just having an awesome time with my husband and son.:)

 

What is fun to do in Belize and Isla Roatan? Probably going to hit the beach in Isla Roatan...any nice beaches with decent snorkeling?

Hope you enjoy your cruise!! Went to both of these islands last summer. Cave tubing is highly recommended in Belize. There is a beautiful beach right at port in Isla Roatan, Mahogany Bay Beach. Ziplining with Clip N Zip is also very popular in Isla Roatan.

The beach at Roatan is a 'man made' beach, not much for snorkeling. The friends of ours that went there said it was crowded and the water was murky.

Try the excursion (through Carnival only now) for Maya Key. Small island, great snorkeling. Small beach, but not crowded. Just walk out to the end of the pier, down the ladder, and you are on the reef. Love it, been twice, will most likely go again in August. Lunch is great, and included.

Belize has some great snorkeling, too (same reef). We always do the Barrier Reef/Bannister Island excursion with Carnival, because they pick up right from the ship and return to the ship. (and there's rum punch! :D)
