Cruise in June. Recommendations?

[Buck Slayer]

Heading out in June on the Carnival Magic, looks like we are going to go to Jamaica, Cayman, and Cozumel. Ive been on this cruise several years back and loved Jamaica, Cayman was ehh, and Cozumel was... well Cozumel (no complaints ha).

The other option was Belize, Honduras, and Cozumel. Im pretty set on the Jamaica but was just curious if anyone had been to Belize and there was something there just astounding?

I really wanted to do Jamaica, Belize and Cozumel but unfortunately that was not an option.

Also please feel free to give any tips or tricks to make the time more enjoyable, as I said before, I have been but the most recent was 5+ years ago. So Im sure there are some new things that have been discovered.

Thanks & Gig Em.

I don't think you are missing a whole lot by the cruise not stopping in Belize. I've been to Belize before, but the way to go there is to fly there and stay on Ambergris Caye if you want astounding.

pack a case of water, cokes or your favorite beverages, saves alot of money that way

I think it mostly just intrigued me because I have never been there and it seems like an interesting place. But I feel like a person would get a lot more out of the destination with an extended stay.

What beverages do they allow you to board with? Was reading a thread earlier about the drink card ($57.50 a day )

If they don't allow for carry on, I've heard that putting vodka or any clear alcohol with some blue or green food coloring in a mouth wash bottle will do the trick.
Maybe some super glue on the lid.

We are going to Jamaica, cayman's and Cozumel in May. Think it's one of the better ones, Belize I heard was ok.

Royal caribbean will allow you to bring abord two bottles of wine per stateroom on disembarkation day. Not sure about carnival.

did Honduras, Belize, Cozumel last year on Royal Caribbean. In Belize we ziplined which was pretty fun. Honestly though I dont think it really matters where you go, I think I had just as much, if not more fun on the boat during sea days as I did at the destinations

Just took the Carnival Freedom for Spring break. Went to Jamaica, Grand Cayman and Cozumel. Jamaica was fine. Good beach day. Went scuba diving in Grand Cayman and it was excellent. Loved it. Cozumel was another beach day. You can bring one bottle of wine or champagne per passenger over 21. Everything else must be "smuggled" on board. I managed to get a bottle of tequila, bottle of baileys, half bottle of rum and half bottle of vodka. It was a good cruise

How exactly did this smuggling take place?

We are going on a cruise June 14-21. We are going to Cozumel, Grand Cayman, Montego Bay Jamaica on the Carnival Magic. This will be my first cruise. My wife loves them and has been begging me to go for years...

I put my beverage of choice in a Listerine bottle and have never had it confiscated.

You will not really be missing anything by going to Jamaica over Belize. Or vise Versa. Neither is on my top list. I would like to go to on that cruise again just to go to Cayman again. I love Cayman!

Did the Carnival Magic back in 2012. When we stopped in Cayman Islands we went with Red Sails to Stingray City, and it was crazy. You get to snorkel and take stingrays to the surface to pet, plus the open bar wasn't bad.
