Creator's Key Takeaways

Costa Maya was hot yeah it was it was a hot one it was real real hot

we had our feet eaten by fish which you saw that that was weird that was great it was good

it was definitely an experience to watch you all do it but to see Jen's husband Mark's smile on his face that she was doing it was worth it all to me

we bought our son's girlfriend a bracelet with her name on it so I was super excited to get her something from my culture and my background

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Visit the Mayan Flyers and consider tipping them as their income is based on tips and donations
✓Try the fish spa for a unique experience, but note it's not an everyday activity
✓Give feedback to the cruise staff if service is not up to par, as they can learn and grow

Crowds in port — Get off the ship early to avoid crowds, especially when another ship is in port
