Creator's Key Takeaways

One of the best things about this port that I can tell you is that it can accommodate as many as four ships.

The pools are really nice and the best thing about this is that the pools are 100% free.

The two most popular things that you can do in Costaaya is go to a Mayan ruin and go to the beach.

I had a wonderful experience in Costa.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Go to the second pool towards the back of the port for less crowding and more seating.
✓Book excursions outside the port area for the best value.
✓Do the Mayan ruin excursion first thing to avoid missing the ship.
✓Bring water, a camera, and walking shoes for the Mayan ruin tour.
✓Get to the beach early to secure a spot near the water line.

Missing the ship after an excursion — Do the Mayan ruin excursion first thing and ensure you return with enough time.
Crowded pools and beaches — Use the second pool and arrive early at the beach.
