Enjoyed the water toys, kayak, pool and snorkeling, although not much to see while snorkeling. Can easily spend 6 hours. Food good and plentiful. Bring waterproof bag for valuables because locker rental is $20. Then, take ur valuables with you, although it wasn't crowded and seems pretty safe with attentive waiters around to notice if someone is rifling through your things. Rented wave runner from San Francisco club next door.

You can purchase the paradise beach excursion in Cazumel from the ship but we always go independently for a fraction of the cost. We grab a cab from the port for $5 and rent two lounge chairs and umbrella for $20 and a bucket of beers in ice. Service is good but depends how busy they are and how many ships have docked that day. They have a children's blowup water park, the ocean is great but it does have many rocks on the bottom so going in needs care. They also have a full bar, you can pick up lunch and bathrooms available as well.

Visited during a cruise with 13 family members including 6 kids aged 5-13. Cab was $30 each way for 7 people, $3 each for basic club access, add $18 for use of snorkel gear, kayaks, paddle boards, & inflatable rafts/slides. Beautiful new bathrooms/changing rooms, huge, fantastic pool, chair side waiter service. We purchased the $18 wristbands but would have had a great time without them. The water at the beach was rocky and full of seaweed, and not much to look at snorkeling off the dock, so we enjoyed the pool and shaded beach chairs the most. Food was good, too - I split a Mexican combo plate with another adult and it was delicious. Tip: you can't bring food or drinks off the cruise ship in Cozumel so plan to buy some on shore.
