Review summary

The Mariner of the Seas is a beautiful ship on which we never felt like we were sailing with over 3,000 people.

Ports of call

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
We went to Playa Uvas for the clear kayaks and Beach Snorkel Combo (our second time there). This is a great place with great friendly employees. The site does not have a swimming type of beach. Beware the only entry and exit to the water is rocky and somewhat dangerous. You might want to take a few band-aid, etc for any cuts or scrapes. If the wind and/or the tide is strong you will need to be a strong swimmer and strong kayaker. The food and drinks were great.

As soon as you land, people will get you beach recliners and place them in a place of your (?) choice. Search out the best stops on the island for you before you locate. Since we didn't know any better, we were taken to a area well back from the beach whereas we a little walking would have placed us in several better locations.
