We have done these ports at least 10 times so nothing is new to us.. We stay around the port and felt safe and enjoyed shopping..

Progreso (Merida), Mexico

You have to know to walk through the port and board the free bus to town... The roads were messed up but the people were friendly and made up for this inconvenience.
