Costa Maya (Mahahual), Mexico

In port prices not as good as Cozumel but still good variety. Most excursion attractions are at least a half hour drive so don't expect to get many places by taxi - book an excursion or just shop in the area near the pier. Once you leave that area, not much to the town itself.

Cozumel, Mexico

Best prices for Kaluha and other spirits, vanilla and silver were in the shopping area just off the ship. We went into town and found no cheaper prices for those items, but did find stores that had outstanding prices for jewelry and watches. Found a watch that is $250 or more anywhere else on the Internet and there was listed for that, but was able to talk them down to $200. On the negative side, some of the national parks on the ocean charge over $20 just to get in and go to their beach.
