This Cozumel excursion will take you on a fun and entertaining journey around the island. Ride in a customized dune buggy and visit the most interesting spots. Snorkel in pristine water and enjoy a delicious Mexican meal by the beach.
Once you have met your Cozumel tour guide, you will be assigned to a 4-seater buggy and have a brief operational orientation before boarding. From here, you will drive to a beautiful beach where you will stop to walk on the white sand, work on your tan, swim in the beautiful Cozumel waters, have a quick snack at the local restaurant (at your own expense) or even play some beach volleyball!
After your beach stop, you’ll drive along Cozumel’s eastern coastline, where you will pass deserted natural beaches for breath-taking views and several photo opportunities.
Continue your Cozumel excursion towards The Mayan Cacao Company, a venue where you will learn about this ancient plant and its fruits domesticated by the Mayans, more than three thousand years ago. This 45-minute interactive experience will take you back in time. Your guide will explain how chocolate formed such a central role in the Mayan’s social and religious life. Visit the gallery, the Mayan hut, and the theater. Delight your senses in the workshop, where you will learn how to make a chocolate bar with local cacao seeds. Watch your guide grind and mix the ingredients in the traditional metate (which is slightly hollowed oval stone, on which materials such as grain and cocoa are ground using a smaller stone) and fix a delicious beverage, which you will also have the opportunity to taste–a great experience for your senses.
Next, you will visit the SkyReef Beach Club for a great guided snorkeling tour from the shore. Here you will discover the colorful marine life in the crystal clear waters of Cozumel.
After your day of Cozumel excursions, we’re sure you’ve worked up an appetite. Get ready to savor a delicious Mexican lunch by the beach while enjoying a magnificent ocean view. Choose from sizzling chicken fajitas, quesadillas or fish tacos, and then take in the views of the ocean as your meal is served.
Once you have finished your lunch, you will be returned to the meeting location. For guests with a little extra time and nothing to do, stay and enjoy (at no extra cost) the facilities at the SkyReef Beach Club. If you choose to stay, you will be responsible for taking a taxi back to the ship pier (not included) and ensuring you are on time for your ship’s departure.
