George Town, Grand Cayman

This was our first time visiting George Town. We took a tour to Stingray City and visited the famous Seven Mile Beach. The beaches are some of the most beautiful that I have seen, with the water surrounding the island being a spectacular turquoise color. Plan your day in advance if you visit George Town - we wish we had more time to explore!

Cozumel, Mexico

We chose to take a Celebrity Cruises snorkeling excursion through the tour operator Playa Mia while in Cozumel. This tour left from right by where the ship was docked and transported us to two spectacular reefs via a comfortable catamaran. We snorkeled in two of the famous reefs of Cozumel National Marine Park and saw tropical fish, coral, and starfish. Overall this tour was great, and the guides/crew leading the excursion made it such a fun experience. If you are looking to snorkel and want to spend the day on the water in Cozumel I highly recommend this tour.

Key West, Florida

We took the Conch Train Trolley around Key West. It allowed us to hop on/off at some of the sites that we wanted to see on the island. Visited the Hemingway House, Southernmost Point marker, Duval Street, and did a lot of walking around the area.

Ft. Lauderdale (Port Everglades), Florida

Giving high marks for the easy embarkation/disembarkation process at Port Everglades. They were very efficient in making the lines move along. We never seemed to have much of a wait in line.

Celebrity Equinox

Use the Celebrity Cruises app to help plan your days onboard Equinox. There is always some sort of activity going on and this will help you keep up with what you want to take advantage of. Also, if you are looking for a quiet place to sit outside and watch the waves roll by check out the lounge areas on Deck 5 (especially those near Cafe al Baccio). These seemed to never be that crowded! If you are cruising on this ship, I recommend bringing a cruise ship-approved power strip - there were limited power outlets in the room.
