reef club or beach?

[carly chloe]

What is better? Going to the Reef Beach Club or going to somewhere like Buddy's and being by the beach? And how far away are those cenotes(?) that I heard about? Thanks.

Carly. Just keep reading and checkout http://www.yucatantoday.com Lots of options and some that are somewhat unique to this port.

Carly, please share if you find a vendor who does a tour to any of the cenotes. I am interested as well. Cozumel will be our beach-y, water-y, fun day, and I wanted to see the cenotes, which would also be water fun, but different water fun.....you know what I mean. :p We'll settle for the Reef Club, too, if we can't nail down a good tour that will show us the cenotes.

 

So please, come back and post if you find out anything good! It will help others.....like me!

There is a cenote at the DZ ruins, just 15 miles from Progreso. Many people have posted their experiences.

Dukefamily - when are you going? I'm going first week in Aug.

[DukeFamily]

Carly, we are going on Carnival's Ecstasy leaving Galveston on June 28. So, whatever we end up doing, I'll be able to come back and report for you!

[carly chloe]

Please do!!! We are going on the Ecstasy too. Our first cruise.

Guys! Like the Yucatan State, cruising is addictive.

[DukeFamily]

Oh Carly ya'll will love cruising. This is my boys' third cruise and my sixth. It's the best vacation EVER. We are already looking into booking the Conquest for next June with stops at Key West, Nassau and Freeport in the Bahamas. That will be fun!

Would we have time to do the Reef Beach Club and come back and have a drink at Buddy's before getting on the boat? Is there alot of time to do the double decker before the buses leave for the Beach Club? Is it right there?

[DukeFamily]

Carly, Just from what I've read remember - no personal experience yet! - if you go to the Beach Club with AutoProgresso, you are at the Beach Club about three hours before you're brought back. With Ecstasy in port from 9-5, sounds like plenty of time afterwards to do the double decker tour and have a drink if it's close by. I think I read the double decker tour is short. Scroll around in this forum a little - it's talked about. You may find it can be done BEFORE you head off to the Reef Club. I'll be checking that out, too.
