Overview

  • One port day. Three completely different ways to experience Costa Maya.

    Stand beneath ancient Maya temples surrounded by tropical jungle, snorkel above colourful coral formations and marine life along the second-largest barrier reef system in the world, and still have time to enjoy the Caribbean from a beach club with a traditional Mexican lunch and open bar.

    Ancient Maya temples. The world’s second-largest barrier reef system. A Caribbean beach club. Each could be the highlight of your day — here, you experience all three.

    It’s the kind of day that reminds you why you came to the Caribbean in the first place.

Activity itinerary

Zona Arqueologica De Chaachoben

  • 2h 50m
  • Admission ticket included
Your adventure begins just steps from the cruise port as you board an air-conditioned vehicle and head inland on a scenic 1-hour drive. Along the way, you’ll pass through the charming village of Pedro Santos, known for its sweet pineapple plantations. Upon arrival at Chacchoben, you’ll step into the heart of the ancient Mayan world—walk beneath towering ceiba trees, explore well-preserved temples, and learn fascinating insights from your expert guide as the jungle reveals its secrets.

Zona de Snorkel Mahahual

  • 1h 50m
  • Admission ticket included
Arrive on the Caribbean coast of Mahahual and get ready to discover a completely different side of Costa Maya — beneath the water. Board your boat for a guided snorkelling experience along the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef, the world’s second-largest barrier reef system. Enter the turquoise waters and snorkel above colourful coral formations while discovering tropical fish and other marine life. Designed for all experience levels, explore this remarkable underwater ecosystem before returning to your Caribbean beach club in Mahahual.

Playa Mahahual

  • 1h 20m
  • Admission ticket included
Now it’s time to slow down and enjoy Mahahual from the beach. Savour a traditional Mexican lunch with open bar, with the Caribbean Sea just steps away. Then enjoy some free time your way — relax on the beach with a cold drink, take a swim or stroll along Mahahual’s colourful boardwalk and browse the nearby shops. After a day that took you from the ancient Maya world to the Mesoamerican Reef and the beaches of Mahahual, sit back and enjoy the short ride back to Costa Maya Port, just minutes away.
