Soar high in the sky on a zip line and snorkel in the clear blue Caribbean Sea at Cozumel's fun-filled Adventure Park.
Surrender to a sweeping landscape of coastal views, sloping hills and lush vegetation as you journey along the Cozumel's captivating coastline during a 15-minute taxi ride to Adventure Park. Known for its thrilling zip line, suspended bridges, climbing walls, and seaside snorkel sites, Cozumel's Adventure Park is a favorite destination of thrill seekers of all ages. Upon your arrival, meet and greet the park's expert guides and take in a safety orientation — where you will be fitted with a harness, helmet and climbing shoes for the first part of the day's adventure. Hold tight as you are whisked away from tower to tower at a height of 25 feet above the ground. Zip along the horizontal line and marvel at the amazing beachside sights from your incredible bird's eye perch. After your high-flying adventure, navigate across suspension bridges, and scale one of the 70 climbing routes available within the park. Then, rappel from the highest platform and glide down to the ground as family and friends cheer you on.
Following your approximate two-hour adventure on land, receive flippers, face mask and vest and immerse yourself in a snorkeling encounter just off the beach, in the breathtaking blue of the Caribbean Sea. Skim the ocean surface and discover an underwater wonderland teeming with colorful marine life and picturesque coral vistas. Explore a hidden ocean cavern at depths of up to 15 feet deep, and marvel at a school of curious tropical fish — including angelfish, snapper, damsels and parrotfish — as they swim only inches from where you wade. Then, resurface and enjoy the day as you desire. Sunbathe on the sun-kissed sands and take in the tranquil sounds of the ocean waves, lapping in the distance. Snap a picture of the endless blue sky during a relaxing coastal stroll before splashing it up in a cool nearby pool. Savor a sip of a refreshing beverage at a beachfront bar — and bask in to the cool islands breezes that seemingly surround your at every turn. After enjoying up to five hours of fun, sit back, relax and soak up the sights once more as you embark on a 15-minute return drive back to the ship.

Discover the historic beauty of captivating Cozumel during a tour of the San Gervasio ruins and wander El Cedral, the ancient site of the island's first Catholic Mass.
Behold a striking landscape of sprawling coastline and stunning blue water during a 10-minute walk from the ship to the transportation rendezvous point. Upon your arrival, board an air-conditioned, motor coach and embark on a 20-minute drive inland to your first stop, the recently excavated ruins of San Gervasio. Once there, embark on an approximate 90-minute, guided tour of the pre-Columbian Maya site, where exterior columns and stone walls mingle with short ceilings and mysterious red-colored hand prints. Snap a picture of the century-old structures — such as the Chi Chan Nah, El Arco, and Nohoch Nah — and learn about the early civilization that once called this awe-inspiring place home. Discover Ixchel, the goddess of fertility and good health, and find out why ancient Mayan women traveled hundreds of miles to San Gervasio to pay homage to her.
After your visit, enjoy a 20-minute drive to what is considered to be the best spot on the eastern side of the island for breathtaking views, the sightseeing point known as El Mirador. Once there, gaze out upon the brilliant turquoise sea and marvel at the jagged rock formations that time and the crashing waves have carelessly crafted. Following your stop, make your way to the very spot of Cozumel that the early Spanish explorers came upon when they landed in 1518: El Cedral. Brimming with scant remnants of yesteryear, including a small structure that is the island's oldest and the ruins of a cinderblock church, El Cedral was once the center of Maya life and is said to be the site of the very first Catholic Mass on Cozumel. Stroll through this historically important area and shop for souvenirs amidst the local vendors that now call this place home.
