Review summary
Grand Cayman - Do not do Tiki Beach as an excursion. It's not in front of a nice beach and you'll actually want to swim elsewhere. We went to 7 mile beach via taxi and enjoyed it after walking down from Calico Jacks for .5+ miles. It took awhile, but when we found a beautiful beach it was totally worth it!
Roatan - Honduras. ..YESSSS
I will definitely be going back here. Do the jet ski/snorkeling excursion! You can snorkel and see the 2nd largest coral reef in the world. I was blown away and I thought I would hate it! The water is crystal clear and the jet skis were super fast. We went up to 50 mph on them!!
Let me put it this way.... I lost my sunglasses 200+ yards out in the ocean and FOUND them because the water is crystal clear and shallow!
Bring cash because the lockers are $10 each. My favorite port for the whole trip!!!
Belize was terrible at port, unless you like shopping...then you'd love it.
You definitely want to do an excursion in Belize. We did cave tubing and it was only $55 pp booking outside of Carnival at the physical port. LOVED cave tubing!!
Cozumel. ..got here on Cinco de Mayo and we were going to do the twister boat excursion. All water excursions got canceled because it was raining. Mexico does not celebrate Cinco de Mayo like Americans do....so my expectations were too high. We ended up taking a taxi to Paradise Beach and LOVED IT!!
I HIGHLY recommend this cruise :)
