5waldos Posted January 8, 2009 #1 Share Posted January 8, 2009 We will be in Cozumel and in Grand Cayman late in March. We thought we would do one boat trip and one off shore day snorkeling but wonder if anyone can make recommendations as to which we should do where? And if the water will be reasonably warm at that time. I am assuming that the weather will be fine (always a risk but nevermind). Can anyone help me make a decision?

azkcruizers Posted January 8, 2009 #2 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Hello I can't tell you which would be better offshore or by boat, but I can tell you that we had a great time on the Rays Reef and RumPoint excursion with www.nativewaywatersports.com in Grand Cayman. There are a lot of great reviews on them if you search under ports....grand cayman. Karen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruiseQueen13 Posted January 14, 2009 #3 Share Posted January 14, 2009 We prefer by boat. We have been on a few that take you to different places and give you some time at each. We love that. In Barbados we snorkeled with sea turtles they were huge! then stopped by a sunken ship, little time on the beach and snorkeling from shore. It was fantastic.

TheVegasMan Posted January 20, 2009 #4 Share Posted January 20, 2009 I did some great shore snorkeling off of Grand Cayman's 7 mile beach in a lagoon across the street from Indies Suites. I hear that hotel is now used for student housing for med students. In Cozumel the best shore snorkeling is claimed to be at Chankanaab Park. There are plenty of operators to choose from for glass bottomed boats and snorkel boats. Lots of them have bars on boat as well. We liked our trips with the Fury Catamarans. http://furycozumel.com/ We also liked the Tucan Sailing trip offered by www.cozumelsailing.com as they leave at 9:00 from the north end of the Island they don't fit many cruise schedules.

cmdchiefthom Posted January 21, 2009 #5 Share Posted January 21, 2009 In Cozumel, I always dive on the UCab III with Tony. However in Cayman, I've done it all for years, and one of the best series of dives I've had is when my wife and I went over to Eden Rock. Take a right at the tender dock, walk along the road, Eden Rock is a couple of blocks down on the right. Rent the gear you need and a locker for your clothes, walk maybe 100' to the step in, and snorkel out to some great diving in the park. Just like it used to be 35 years ago.;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
