teresapink Posted April 16, 2007 #1 Share Posted April 16, 2007 HI! We are doing western caribbeean again (2nd time) and need some fresh ideas.....last time we went to stingray city by catamaran in grand cayman, tubing on the white river in jamaica and it was a disaster in cozumel because our excursion got cancelled last minute and we scrambled to some awful beach..... we LOVED both of the other excursions...any suggestions?

cincicruisers Posted April 16, 2007 #2 Share Posted April 16, 2007 Just a personal preference: Paradise Beach at Cozumel- fun beach day, great food and drinks, good beach. Canopy Tour/Jamaica- Fantastic! Grand Cayman- I usually go to 7 mile beach and then shop at that port. They have great snorkling and diving as many of my friends have stated. Either way have a great cruise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ali07 Posted April 16, 2007 #3 Share Posted April 16, 2007 My husband and son can't stop talking about the 4x4 safari thing (with the 2 seater 4x4 vehicles) in Cozumel. It combined a drive, swim/snorkel, some wildlife, and a great taco! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skipsu14 Posted April 17, 2007 #6 Share Posted April 17, 2007 In Jamaica, we loved climbing Dunn's River Falls - it was beautiful and a real fun adventure! In Cozumel, I would highly reccommend to try Intro to Scuba if you are interested. It was amazing! My DH is still talking about that excursion. No certifications are required! After the morning scuba diving, we rented a little electric car (it was an egg-shaped golf cart - $40 for the day) and drove to the beaches. Couldn't beat the day - We can't wait to go back! We are always try to find the active excursions and do a little something out of the ordinary for us since we live by the beach. Hope this helps. Enjoy the trip!

gedam Posted April 23, 2007 #7 Share Posted April 23, 2007 Personally, I don't think you will beat the inner tube rafting!!!!! :cool: Do you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigdaddyshoo Posted April 23, 2007 #8 Share Posted April 23, 2007 I'll throw in my recommendation to doing a day at Rum Point beach when you're in Grand Cayman. That place is even better if you've got kids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ISTDS Posted April 23, 2007 #9 Share Posted April 23, 2007 Just suggestion: In Cozumel- if you are interested in history: Take the Tulum Express tour. This is the only Mayan Ruin that is right on the Caribbeen Sea. there is Even a Beach If you Would like to swim. No Idea on Grand Cayman: RCCL cancelled our tour last minute. So we shopped and then went back to the boat and Spent the day at the pool. On Jamaica - we did the "Taste of Jamaica" Tour. It was Very interesting. Hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chicagojayhawk Posted April 24, 2007 #10 Share Posted April 24, 2007 What about the mayan steamlodge experience in Cozumel? We're doing this when we go in August and we can't wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bankonus Posted April 24, 2007 #11 Share Posted April 24, 2007 Did the powerboat excursion in Cozumel when we were there last, and doing it again this July. It was a BLAST!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnnJohn Posted April 24, 2007 #12 Share Posted April 24, 2007 Would highly recommend using Marva Shaw in Ocho Rios. See www.knowjamaica.com. You can sign up for tours or email her with any special requests. We loved the Punta Sur eco reserve in Coz. Also, if you want to go to the mainland, X-Caret eco Park was really neat. (obviously we like nature type activities). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
