KATHYMAC68 Posted March 26 #1 Share Posted March 26 Please help me decide from these 2 excursions. Maya Key comes with lunch and Turquoise Bay is all inclusive. I’m looking for a clean beach with clear water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest 2000 Posted April 17 #3 Share Posted April 17 Have you looked at the pictures of Turquoise Bay on their website? They seem to suggest shallows like Sandy Bay. Roatan’s Best Dive Value | Turquoise Bay Dive Resort (turquoisebayresort.com) Maya Key also has a website, and the water definitely looks clear. More possibility for snorkeling as well.

KATHYMAC68 Posted April 17 Author #4 Share Posted April 17 Thank you! I’m going with Maya Key. The animals and pool were the deciding factors. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been to both although not recently. i would return to both but they very different experiences and it would probably depend on who I was traveling with. Not sure if you have any specific questions or needs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We did Maya Key on our Carnival Cruise recently. The snorkeling was excellent. You go off the end of a pier off the beach. They have guides for you. The beach itself is calm and clear. The animals are all rescues, many confiscated from travelers at the local airport. The food was good. You get a single pass through the food line. Bar has all kinds of drinks, but you pay as you go. We had a good time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone posted that you’re in shallow water and the coral is high. They were getting cut up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were getting cut up. My daughter got coral burn many years ago when she was suddenly caught in a strong current. As posted above sometimes there is someone guiding you and I think there are ropes or something now so it may be easier to stay on course. we have enjoyed the pool. It is away from the beach. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare dctravel Posted April 21 #9 Share Posted April 21 Coral is definitely shallow. I nicked my hand, but not seriously. Pool looked nice, but we didn’t go in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
