MickeyG Posted August 11, 2004 #1 Share Posted August 11, 2004 This being our first cruise and first visit to Cozumel, I have a couple of questions about Paradise Beach. Do any reservations need to be made prior to our visit? From what I gather, we need only grab a taxi at the port and tell the driver to take us to PB. I assume that once we are there we simply find a place to sit, relax and enjoy the food/beverages and water. We will be in Cozumel on 12/22/04. Will everything be up and running during the Christmas season? Are the crowds larger or smaller during this time of year? Is PB kid friendly (ages 11 & 13)? Thanks for any and all help you can provide.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clemsoncruiser Posted August 12, 2004 #2 Share Posted August 12, 2004 Yes, just grab a taxi! There are no reservations needed. There is a lot to do at PB, and its very kid friendly. Check it out at http://www.paradise-beach-cozumel.net. I found out yesterday that, as of Oct. 1st (I think), there will be one $5 charge for usage of the "toys" (see the website) - a deal compared to other beaches down there. This excludes the beach chairs and the umbreallas - they are still free!! As for the crowds, I havent been in Dec. so I can't help you out with that one!!! Hope this helps!!!!

Cozumel_Tom Posted August 16, 2004 #6 Share Posted August 16, 2004 MickeyG...I'll be around, just look for the tall guy with the purple cap! Had an amazing weekend, actually...went to see and swim with whale sharks off Holbox Island in the Gulf! Check this: http://www.h2opeakperform.com/whale_shark_tours.htm for an idea of what we experienced. The Manta Rays were impressive also....huge wingspans! Hasta la vista!

sea_u_onboard Posted August 18, 2004 #7 Share Posted August 18, 2004 Is the water for the drinks and ice purified? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cozumel_Tom Posted August 18, 2004 #8 Share Posted August 18, 2004 Yes, of course!! Sick guests are bad for business! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sea_u_onboard Posted August 18, 2004 #9 Share Posted August 18, 2004 Well - you never know. I would think SOMEONE would have said something on here if the great montazoomas revenge hit them - but I also know it's a question the others in my party will ask - so now I can say I asked. Thanks for the all clear - LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRudy33 Posted August 18, 2004 #10 Share Posted August 18, 2004 I too was worried about drinking anything on Cozumel. When we were last there (10 years ago), we were warned not to drink anything but bottled unopened water and beer. We will have our daughter with us and I really want to be careful. But you're right, I haven't heard anyone complaining. Surely they would. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
