NewerCruiser2014 Posted April 18, 2014 #1 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Hi! We have decided that we want to take a break from doing excursions at this port and are wondering what else there is to do. Are there any public beaches or maybe restaurants where you can eat and then go on their beach? Is there any shopping or things to do/see? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCruisers Posted April 18, 2014 #2 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Majahaul is a quick inexpensive taxi ride and has lovely beach areas where chairs, etc. can be rented. :) LuLu ~~~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
debk68 Posted April 18, 2014 #3 Share Posted April 18, 2014 We didn't do this ( we went on an ATV excursion) but you can rent golf carts that looked like a fun way to see Costa Maya. If I remember correctly it was $70 for 4 hours. If not get a Taxi to Mahahaul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkinator Posted April 19, 2014 #4 Share Posted April 19, 2014 Yeah, get a taxi to Mahahual. It's a great place to relax and do nothing. And don't worry about getting back to the port, cause their are taxis all over the place waiting to take you back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wantocruisemore Posted April 19, 2014 #5 Share Posted April 19, 2014 Grab the taxi and head over to the beach area. You can reserve chairs from Steve at Tropicante to be sure you get a nice spot. Only pay for food/drinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disfan5 Posted May 2, 2014 #6 Share Posted May 2, 2014 We were at Tropicante last week and it was great. I e-mailed ahead of time and reserved a table for two. It was just me and my dad and we were able to get a table in the shade which was perfect for us. I also loved that they have a phone so you can all home for no charge. It was great to be able to check on my husband and kids back home. The guacamole was really good. There is also a few shelves of used books for sale in the restaurant and I found a book that my dad really enjoyed reading, so that was niceto have for the rest of the trip.

#1TravelMom Posted May 2, 2014 #7 Share Posted May 2, 2014 I second the suggestion for Tropicante. Just email Steve and he will have the loungers waiting for you. Gorgeous beach, great food and drinks - very friendly. This is a great way to spend some totally relaxing time. Taxi is $5 round trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saltz Posted May 11, 2014 #8 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Did any of you have any issues with the taxi drivers not wanting to take you to the correct spot when asking for the Tropicante? Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrobstad Posted May 29, 2014 #9 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Everything is walking distance from cab drop off...this is not a big city like Cozumel....here's another vote for the Tropicante, where BMG and the NCL Epic performers gang out when in port.....make sure you get a $25 massage on the beach!
