    I have been here.. this place is beautiful and I snorkeled with Willem Dafoe and his lovely family.. altogether there were about 20 of us on the snorkeling trip with 5 of them the Dafoe family. OMG.. was he so nice and such a gentleman. He helped us all off of the boat when we went to our private island lunch.. WE LOVE THIS PLACE..

    Loved your video! We will be here in April on the Celebration. Quick question the excursion on the ship says you must be 8 years old to do the catermaran snorkel tour. I really want to get to this beach with my six year old. Can we book a tour at playa del carmen with him being 6? We are not planning on snorkeling as im not a great swimmer but can we do it and just hang out at the shallow end?

    • @TouristtoLocal
      @TouristtoLocal  Год назад

      Video coming on the Celebration very soon! It's a great ship! Usually if you do a tour on land, they should be more flexible than if you were to book on the ship. Just explain it to the tour operator and see what they think!

      While we never have stayed overnight in Cozumel, we would probably recommend staying a couple nights here if you could. It's just so beautiful and there's even more to see here than what we showed. We'd definitely recommend it over playa del carmen!

    I'm going to visit all of the Riviera Maya next month and plan to do a snorkeling tour in Cozumel. Is there an entrance fee to go to Playa Palancar and if so should i pay in advance or can i pay when i arrive? I saw online that the beach club is $20 per person. So if i want to do the snorkel tour it would be $35 + $20?

    My husband and I want to visit Cozumel later this year. Do you think a week there is too long? Should we break up the stay with a few days in Playa? We'd likely visit Playa for a day trip if we stay on the island all week. :)

    • @TouristtoLocal
      @TouristtoLocal  10 месяцев назад +1

      Considering one day would be spent getting there and one day would be spent going home, a week in Cozumel with a day trip to Playa would probably be perfect! If you get bored, you could also consider doing another day trip to Xcaret. It's easy enough with the ferry nearby :)

      All 3 grandchildren are very athletic and love adventure. We will have already knocked out zip lining plus stingray/shark swimming at the prior stops.
      With their ages of 8 to 13, is there any other “must do’s” for them in Cozumel?
