We spent a couple of hours walking the tourist section of Cozumel. We have been here many times so no need to go into the city or any water sports. We did a little bit of shopping. Ended up at Senor Frog where we watched the insanity that is common to the venue. Music, drunk tourists, excellent margs, and much more. We got full on chips and guac so no big meal. However, the margs were 28 ounces!! |

aft location, capacity 695 seats) is a
complimentary, self-service buffet restaurant
with indoor-outdoor seating. It is open between
6:30 am – 1 am (with 24-hour stations for
coffee, tea, juices). The lido buffet restaurant
offers Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner, with various
food stations for Pizza (11:30-1 am), Pasta
(12-noon - 11 pm), Grill (5:30-9:30 pm),
Soups/Sandwiches (12-3 pm), Desserts (12-9:30

Bar (12-11 pm), Ice Cream/Yogurt (12-10 pm,
homemade hard ice cream /hand-scooped,
fresh-baked cookies, toppings); Afternoon Tea
(served between 4-5 pm, with scones and mini
sandwiches). Unlike most buffet-style
restaurants on cruise ships, Oceanview Cafe &
Grill operates with pre-plated (individual)
dishes. This provides better portion control and
reduces the risk of GI (Norovirus) illness
outbreaks.
Oceanview Bar (formerly “Sunset Bar”, 120 seats)
is an al-fresco bar serving the ship’s
aft-located open-air terrace. The bar offers
panoramic views, live music, and also sells fine
cigars.
