Please note: guests must be at least 5 years of age and weigh no more than 113 kg (250 lbs) to take part. Guests are recommended to wear swimwear under comfortable clothing as well as to bring water shoes and a change of dry clothes. Please ensure your sunscreen is fully biodegradable as normal sunscreen is prohibited from use due to the damage it causes to the reef. The tour involves walking on uneven ground. Guests will not be permitted to take watches, jewellery, photo or video cameras on the underground river tour. Guests will be able to purchase professional photos of their experience at additional expense. Guests are requested to take their own level of physical fitness into account when deciding whether to take part. For safety reasons, the tour is not open to guests of limited mobility, pregnant women, guests with heart or respiratory conditions, back or neck injuries and/or who have recently undergone surgery. The tour is considered to be unsuitable for guests with claustrophobia. The approx. 45-minute ferry transfer to Playa del Carmen may be rough depending on the sea conditions.

For calls when the ship is in port 10 or more hours, this tour will last an hour longer and guests will have free time in Playa del Carmen.

Spend a few relaxing hours off the ship in one of Cozumel's most beautiful locations, the Chankanaab National Park, an enchanting beachfront area and protected marine reserve. With only a short drive from the cruise terminal to begin your tour, you can then enjoy the all-inclusive facilities and attractions of the park, among which snorkelling in the shallow beachside waters is one of the most popular. Gear up and indulge in an adventurous swim through the shoals of multi-coloured fish that call the reef their home, but also look out for various underwater statues that form part of the marine reserve. Further attractions in the park included free sea lion shows, the Blue Lagoon inland coral reef to visit, and a lush botanical garden with replicas of Mayan archaeological finds, a reproduction Mayan village and the Hacienda Antigua, the perfect spot to sample different kinds of tequila. While at the park, you'll be free to use the beachfront Palapas (a kind of thatched gazebo), showers, changing rooms, beach chairs and hammocks.

Some islands have all the luck: endless sunshine, friendly locals, gorgeous scenery, pristine beaches and  just as though that wasn't enough  even dolphins swimming in their coastal waters. One such is Grand Cayman and this tour will see you both swim with dolphins and visit its longest beach. Your outing begins with a drive from Georgetown to the Dolphin Cove facility. Next, you'll head down to the natural lagoon for a briefing before you get to play with, touch and ride belly-to-belly with the dolphins. On-site photographers will be busy with their cameras while you are in the water, creating lasting memories of a special experience. After your swim, you may like to purchase some photos and browse for souvenirs while waiting for your transfer down to Seven Mile Beach. This swathe of white sand very nearly does what it says on the tin and actually stretches out over some 6 miles, or roughly 10 kilometres. You'll be dropped at a spot chosen with your comfort in mind, with food and drink on sale and beach chairs for hire (at additional cost not covered by the price of the tour). There'll be sufficient time for you to enjoy all the beach has to offer before you head back to the pier and your ship.

Take some time off the ship and join this fascinating and highly varied tour, which begins with a short drive in an air-conditioned coach to Dolphin Cove, your first stop. Once you have been briefed, you can enjoy a close encounter of the aquatic kind when you meet and greet these endearing sea creatures. Enjoy the friendship of your dolphin by petting and receiving a kiss or two. You will also be given information on typical dolphin behaviour and learn how the trainers communicate with the animals using hand signals. The tour then proceeds on to Stingray City, the site of your next underwater adventure, for an unforgettable chance to interact with and feed the friendly southern stingrays that are typical of these waters. On returning to Dolphin Cove, you can re-board the coach for the journey back to George Town and your ship. Please note: you are recommended to wear comfortable clothing, comfortable shoes and swimwear, bring a change of clothes, towels and sunscreen. You are further advised to leave jewellery and any other valuables on board your ship. Guests under 8 years of age must be accompanied by a paying adult. A waiver form will have to be signed by an adult for all guests under the age of 18. The tour may be run in reverse order. This tour is not suitable for women who are pregnant.

Feast your eyes on a marvellous underwater world, but stay dry and cosy at the same time by joining this unique cruise in a submarine, the Atlantis. After a short boat transfer from the ship, youll board the sub and at a depth of about 20-30 m/65-100 ft. begin to explore the marine environment. Experienced crew members will point out and share facts about the abundant aquatic wildlife youll be able to see through the portholes, from otherworldly sponge beds and coral formations to brightly coloured tropical fish. Normal sea-level pressure will be maintained throughout the air-conditioned journey to the depths, so youll stay cool and comfortable at all times. The tour draws to a close with your return to the ship. Please note: guests must be able to navigate a 10-step ladder without assistance. Guests must be at least 4 years of age and be at least 92 cm/3 ft. tall to take part.

Is it a bus? Is it a boat? No, it's both - and your very special amphibious mode of transport on this entertaining overland and underwater sightseeing tour. Leave the ship, get comfy on the bus and then enjoy the cityscape of Georgetown, the capital of the Cayman Islands, and its appealing Caribbean ambience. You'll be taken around of the city's best locations, with your guide telling you all about their history as you go. Photo-worthy sights abound so do remember to bring your camera, especially for your ride under the sea. Fitted with underwater cameras and large viewing monitors, the bus reveals the rich marine wildlife, coral gardens and even some ancient shipwrecks that inhabit these waters. And to top off your underwater jaunt, you can watch fish being hand fed from the comfort of your seat. Once back on dry land, round off your outing with a leisurely stroll down the island's world-famous 7-Mile Beach before you begin the return journey to your ship at the pier.

Take yourself off the ship for half a day to discover two of the Cayman Islands' best snorkelling sites, the first of which will be at the wreck of the USS Kittiwake. This former US Navy submarine rescue vessel was in service from 1946 right up to 1994, and then  in 2009  was deliberately sunk at its present location off Seven Mile Beach to provide an artificial reef for local marine wildlife. While you snorkel around the 251 ft./76.5 m wreck, you'll be able to see its main decks, look down smokestacks and catch glimpses of the ship's hull and engine room. Next up is the so-called Cheeseburger Reef  a name that comes from a nearby outlet of a global fast-food brand  where a natural reef system can be enjoyed. At a depth of about 25 ft./7.6 m, you'll be able to snorkel to your heart's content. Finally and time permitting, the outing is rounded off with time to do some shopping in the centre of George Town before you return to the ship.

This fun excursion begins at the pier when you board an air-conditioned coach, together with a guide to provide information and point out places of interest on the way. Leaving George Town, you will take the scenic route past Seven Mile Beach, with a number of stunning five-star hotels to view as you go. A quick stop will be made at the Governor's Residence, the official home of the Governor of the Cayman Islands, after which you will head for the island's famous Sea Turtle Center, the only one of its kind in the world. Founded in 1968, the research centre has since played a vital role in the protection and conservation of these endangered sea creatures, some of which can weigh as much as 600 lbs. Your visit will give you a chance to see various species of turtle and Cayman iguanas, touch a turtle , take photos and explore the gift shop for a fitting memento. Your next stop will be at the Tortuga Rum Cake factory, where you can sample the world-famous "Tortuga rum cake", before you make your way to Hell. This hilariously named Cayman town is the perfect spot from which to send postcards, aptly postmarked "Mailed from Hell". And you'll earn the right to rightfully claim that you've "been to Hell and back. Your return drive to Georgetown brings the tour to a close.
