How much is snorkel equipment? I'm wondering if it's worth paying through RC or

just rent from a place once we get off the ship.

I did cenote hopping from Cozumel. You have to take a ferry and bus ride.

We did an excursion in Cozumel on our last one that took us to the home of a family who lives on the island. We

Go over to Isla Mujeres when in Cozumel and do a beach day.

Renting scooters is also fun
