RCCL best ports for: adventure, ruins and snorkeling

[Tigergenesis]

Of the ports that RCCL goes to, what are the best for:

• snorkeling

• ruins

• swimming w/ rays

• swimming w/ sharks

• adventure type activities (preferably the best tour that offers a combo of activites like: kayaking, rafting, zip lines, atv, cave tubing, etc).

Snorkeling - Grand Cayman

Swimming with rays - Grand Cayman

Ruins - some nice ones in Tulum which is an excursion from Cozumel

Adventure type activities - cave tubing and zip lining have been offered in Jamaica

 

 

Overall, sounds like you want to do a western Caribbean itinerary that normally includes the aforementioned ports.

Cozumel,

Snorkeling and sting rays in Grand Cayman -- although the sting ray sites are crowded and you will probably get a flipper in your face at some point. The ruins in Costa Maya were not as far as some others -- only about an hour -- most are two or more hours by bus. Might try the SNUBA diving if you like snorkeling -- like Scuba but you don't have to be certified and your air tank is on a raft and you are attatched by a 20 ft. air tube. The islands are great for water sports -- St. Thomas and St. Maarten especially.

Belize would be your best stop for all of that, however the snorkling is GREAT in Costa Maya too!

Thank you everyone! It does seem that the Western Carribean cruise (Grand Cayman, Cozumel, Costa Maya and Belize) that I was looking at is the right choice. :)
