Costa Maya, Mexico Shore Excursion Review

Hayley Arnold
Bike and Kayak Adventure

Here we did the Bike and Kayak Adventure ($48 per adult) through the cruise-promoted excursion. I was pleased that the biking was not strenuous and it allowed for cruisers to see the town of Mahuhal, which I think gives a flavor for a coastal Mexican village. The kayaking was also very nice and the tour staff were excellent. The staff spoke English very well and were very helpful. After the excursion we went on our own to a restaurant in Mahuhal (cab fare from port $2 per person) and ordered chips, guacamole, pico de gallo, and salsa with margaritas and beers. The proprietor was welcoming and honest and did all the work (made the food, served us, etc.) This was very inexpensive and delicious. We had to shield our eyes from the unseemliness of the kitchen and had to withstand a dirty bathroom with a nonflushing toilet, no toilet paper, and no sink (it might help to pretend you’re camping). This might have just been this restaurant. There was not much in the way of a beach there, but maybe we did not go to the right place for that.
