cruise-y Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 Can anyone comment about this Cozumel excursion? Mexican Cuisine Workshop and Playa Mia Grand Beach. The cooking class/lunch gets pretty good reviews but Trip Advisor doesn't have much good to say about Playa Mia Grand Beach. This 5-hour excursion starts at 9:00 for some weird reason and I'm worried that there won't be much beach time. Or the beach won't be nice. We'd like to rent a 2-person catamaran there. If anyone can give some insight I'd be appreciative. Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocLC Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 I did it years ago and really enjoyed it. However, you'll be extremely limited in beach time unless you opt to take s can back on your own and forego the tour transportation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mworkman Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 We did it not long ago and had a blast, as for the beach..you don't have much time after the cooking to really enjoy it. If I recall it was 2 hours. Hoski and DocLC 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruise-y Posted May 22, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 Thank you! Good info. I was wondering if we'd be allowed to take a taxi back on our own at a later time. I assume that's ok? Are there taxis available there at the site? I didn't know if that might be restricted since they give you a drink wrist band and might not want you hanging around longer than the set time.

DocLC Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 @cruise-y it doesn't hurt to ask when you get there. Given that you want to spend money, I doubt they'd send you away. Taxis will be lined up in front, just make sure to give yourself plenty of time to get back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruise-y Posted May 22, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 I like the idea of doing something on Cozumel itself. That tender ride to Playa del Carmen can be brutal. Hoski 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm with you on the tender ride being less than ideal. I find there is lots to do on Cozumel. The primary reason to go to Playa del Carmen is to go to the Mayan ruins there, which are significantly better. But in nearly any other regard, I don't feel the tender ride warrants leaving Cozumel.

mworkman Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 There are taxi's available if you chose to leave after the cooking class. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
