Dolphin Encounter at Chankanaab

[debbie48]

Has anyone taken a taxi ride from the dock to Chankanaab? Any idea how far away and the price? Or is it it worth it to take the package with the cruise line?

 

Thank you

I made reservations directly through Dolphin Discovery for the Snorkel and Swim Adventure for $99, it was $169 through the ship. The excursion through the ship would have included transportation and admission to the park. So I figure I'm saving about $38 by booking it on my own. I also was able to choose my time slot which was important to me. When they sent me my conformation it had the following info:

 

From the CARIBBEAN PRINCESS in Cozumel, take a taxi to Chankanaab National Park and check-in no later than 9:30 AM. Please allow at least 15 MINUTES to get there, in order to arrive on time. The taxi should cost approximately US$10 one-way.

Chankanaab National Park opens at 8am and Dolphin Discovery opens at 9am. Please remember that there is an entrance fee of US$12.00 per adult, and US$6.00 per child age 3 – 11, to Chankanaab National Park. Bring along towels and a change of clothes, if you would like, as we have a shower and changing rooms. Small lockers for personal belongings are also available for program participants. Please be sure to bring your credit card for verification at check-in, and for any extra expenses.
