Cruise to Costa Maya, Mexico

Costa Maya is located on Mexico’s southern Yucatan Peninsula, a few hours from Cancun, Mexico. Built to resemble an ancient Mayan city, Costa Maya is the first all-inclusive port designed just for cruise ships and their passengers.  When your cruise to Costa Maya docks, you will enter a beautiful walled community.  If you want to experience the “real” Mexico, shore excursions are the way to go.

The Oxtankah, Chacchoben, and Kohunlic Mayan ruins are the most popular shore excursions.  Make sure to bring your camera so you can add pictures of these amazing Mayan ruins to your cruise to Costa Maya photo album. The best time of year to book your cruise to Costa Maya depends on what you are looking for.  February is the best time of year for bird watching.  May is great for water activities because the waters are fairly calm and there are not a lot of mosquitoes. June is also great for water activities because the water is like glass, however this is the start of mosquito season. 

If you choose to venture off the beach during this time, don’t forget your insect repellant. If you don’t like the spring break crowd, don’t visit Costa Maya in March.  Spanish is the official language in Costa Maya, Mexico but most people around cruise ports speak English. The Mexican Peso is the official currency, but those from America will find their dollar is widely accepted. 

Cruise lines that stop at Costa Maya include Carnival Cruises, Royal Caribbean International, Celebrity Cruises and Regent Seven Seas.
