Walk to Tapas

[adios]

From where the bus drops you off, how far of a walk is it to Tapas?

Everything is within a block or two of where the bus lets you off.

No it is not... Tapas is about 1 1/2 miles from pier. Walk thru the shopping village and you will see sign for taxis, follow them and you can take a cab for 3.00 per person to get there 2.00 per person to get back. I would not recommend walking from the pier as it is very rural, not developed and it may make you a little nervous to walk. Tapas is the best!! Once you get out of the taxi tapas will be on the right side just a little ways down. This was the best day of our cruise....enjoy, they have an excellent staff there!!!

Sorry. I meant from where you are dropped off in Mahahual.

The question was how far from where the bus drops you is Tapas. Yes, it is just a short walk from where the bus drops you in the center of town. Have fun!

Quick Question: Is there a beach for sunning and swimming near Tapas?

 

We'll be in Costa Maya April 25 during our sailing on Sensation, and can't wait to visit Tapas for delicious food and cold Negra Modelo's! We see that the beach area near Tapas is beautiful, but after lunch and drinks, is there anywhere in the village of Mahahual where we can spend time sunning and swimming?

 

We really, really, really try to avoid cruise line excursions, and would prefer to do this entirely on our own. We're happy to rent some beach chairs if that's what it takes.

 

Thanks in advance, everyone! What a great message board!

Hi SS Strider,

I see you will be on the April 23 Sensation cruise. We have a small thread going on Carnival roll calls. Why not join us? Would love to hear from you.

Where the bus drops you off there is a dirt road thru the village. The buildings are on the right the beach is on the left. The beach side has chairs, lounges, tables and is served by the restaurants across the street. Lots of swimming, sun, food and drinks available. No charge if you buy food or drinks.
