Upon arriving in MoBay, we were advised by the local authorities that we should not wander around by ourselves, as it could be dangerous. We opted to take a taxi shuttle to Margaritaville Beach, as the local guy said that there is good snorkeling there. Price to Margaritaville was $4 per person each way. When we got there, we realized it was just a bar on the ocean, but there was a large waterslide from the bar into the water. No beach, no chairs, and I assume if you wanted to go swimming you would leave your clothes and towel at your table. Doctor’s Cove Beach was just up the street and we decided to walk it. No surprises here – in the under 5 minute walk it took us to get to Doctor’s Cove we were harassed by many locals offering everything imaginable. We just ignored them and kept on walking. Admission to the beach was $3 per person and a beach chair was an additional $2 or so. The beach was very nice, offering full facilities. We headed out to the reef and were surprised to see quite a few fish. Nothing like Cozumel, but much better than the snorkeling we did in Ocho Rios last year.
