Hmmmm. . .k LOVED Costa Maya, and MOST ESPECIALLY the 'little fishing village' of Majahual.

Personally, I wasn't too crazy about the cruise-line developed shopping center at the pier. Too plastic, to much likke a million anad one strip centers in the US, with, of course, the addition of a pool and some costumed dancers. I've seen pools before... don't need o go to the Yucatan to encounter one. For thesse reasons, and more, I have hurried through the immedlate port area on the three occasions I've bisited costa Maya.

Two of the times, I spent the day in Majahual. The third, went on an excuursion to the nearby ruins, which were fascinating.

Unfortunately, we haven't been back since the devistation of Majahual . . . I fear it's gone plastic, but hope it's retained at least some of its charm and uniqueness.

You are right, Lulu - the water will still be there, and it's utterly fabulous!
