  Cozumel  Mexico's largest island, located just 12 miles off the coast of the Yucatan Peninsula is renowned across the world for its dazzling white sand beaches and the clarity of the Caribbean Ocean in which it lies.   Leave the ship here and join one of many fantastic snorkeling excursions.  Take this opportunity to try your hand at this fantastic past-time and slip into another world beneath the warm waters, one characterized by vivid color and discovery...even beginners are catered for, and all equipment is provided.
 

    


Cruise passengers that prefer dry land can tour the magnificent Mayan ruins in the walled city of Tulum or for a dose of pure fun, join an ATV (all-terrain vehicle) jungle adventure.

Families won’t want to miss a trip to X-Caret, Cancun’s largest natural adventure park. With an aquarium, gardens, butterfly pavilion, monkey park, deer shelter, turtles and much more, this stop makes for a tremendous day out, one that your kids will remember long after the cruise holiday is over.
 

And all the while, you can rest easy that – when you are ready to return to “civilization” – your every creature comfort will be taken care of on your stylish floating hotel, the MSC Divina.
