Excursions at Costa Maya

Has anyone had a good experience with any of the "adventure" excursions at
Costa Maya. Thanks for your help.

Hello Steve,

I was in Costa Maya recently and while they are making great strides in
becoming the "next" Cozumel, it shall be an uphill climb. Part of my
party did the beach break which was well, lacking in beach but served
the ultimate purpose of sun and sand. Be warned to wear shoes on the
dock, it aged and will leave its many splinters in the most sensitive
of feet. The other part of the party did the ATV adventure which was a
bit more adventurous. They routed us through heavily guarded gates
into an area being 'citified', through a mosquito ravaged trail for 45
minutes with a pitstop at literally at portapotty only to be deposited
at a beach area that was in need of some work. If you are the type of
person who is up for an adventure and is not interested in the pretty
pictures you'll find in the glossy brochures....costa maya is for you.
I personally loved it, but most of my party hated it. The guides are
lovely and the virgin appeal of the landscape refreshing. Don't expect
too awful much and you'll be pleasantly surprised. The shopping area
at which all the tours converge and depart from is pitiful with the
exception of the rug outlet...quite impressive if you know your
persians....otherwise....have a drink and get back on the ship. Bon
Voyage
