Larry, you have posted the exact same question on each port of call board and received the same answer on at least 2 of them. Perhaps you could tailor the question a little to help out the people who might answer. We certainly don't know what kind of activities you all would enjoy. You are also asking for inexpensive. What price range is "inexpensive" in your mind?

 

If you are interested in hanging at a beach, playing in the sand or water, just take a taxi to one of the beach clubs in Cozumel. Mr Sanchos, Paradise Beach, and others have no admission charge, but it is expected that you buy some food and drink while you sit in the club's chairs. Most also offer water toys for rent.

Most organized excursions are going to average approx $50 per person at least, whether it be snorkeling, horseback riding, etc.

 

We've never been to Costa Maya but here are a couple suggestions for your other 2 ports:

 

Cozumel: I've never been to Paradise Beach, but am probably going here during our November cruise. Definitely sounds like you all will have a good time & should be relatively inexpensive. Another option would be to rent a car/jeep & explore the island then go to PB or another beach club that has no or minimal entrance fees. We did this last year and had a great time.

 

Cayman: Take a taxi to Cemetery Beach. No facilities or food. Just a little patch of beach & some pretty good snorkeling. If I recall correctly, there is also snorkeling pretty close to the ship. Buy your own snorkel gear before you go then you don't have to rent everywhere.

 

Have fun!
