They do have a aviary outside of the port. And so, the cost is about $19.

If heights is not your thing, this might not be the one for you either.

The birds and stuff is cute. But this bridge these bridges Mm-mm.

Come out a little later, you know, when it's less of a crowd out here, you might look up on a free chair.

YouTube Video Description

In this week’s video, we’ve docked in Costa Maya, Mexico! 🌴 PJ and I enjoy a whole father-son day together, starting with a delicious breakfast in the main dining room before booking a last-minute excursion to explore the bird aviary right off the pier. 🦜 It started off as a cute idea — PJ surrounded by colorful tropical birds, laughing and exploring — but there was just one small problem… the bridges. 😅 These suspension bridges were shaky, steep, and definitely not built for comfort. As a bigger guy who’s not the biggest fan of heights, let’s just say my nerves were on high alert the entire time. I was trying to be brave for PJ, but deep down I couldn’t wait to get my feet back on solid ground. 😂 It was equal parts terrifying and hilarious, and definitely one of those travel memories we’ll never forget. 👨‍👦 About This Series: This is part of our Father & Son Cruise Adventure aboard Royal Caribbean’s Mariner of the Seas! Follow along as Phil & PJ set sail with friends on an unforgettable boys’ trip full of laughs, memories, and a little chaos while Mommy (Dee) holds it down back home.
