Our brunch every morning was delicious and our gourmet dinners were excellent, and I loved that they had healthy options too.<\/p>\n<p>I of course had way too many ice cream cones (I should not be allowed near sweets because like a little kid I have no self-control!), but my favorite was the Seafood Shack.

Cozumel is a popular cruise ship port and is famous for its amazing scuba diving! I was surprised by how cute and clean the Puerta Maya is and how much there is to do here.<\/p>\n<p>We opted to go snorkeling at Sunset Beach which is walking distance from the port, but there are an array of activities you can do; swimming with dolphins, catamaran sailing and snorkeling, scuba diving, exploring the ancient city of Tulum (the list goes on and on!), which are all offered as add-on activities on your Carnival cruise.<\/p>\n<p>There are also tons of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jdoqocy.com\/click-8449023-14580842?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.expedia.com%2FCruise-Search%3FadultCount%3D2%26destination%3Dmexico%26max-length%3D9%26min-length%3D3%26earliest-departure-date%3D2023-10-08%26latest-departure-date%3D2025-10-01\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Mexico cruise options<\/a> you can explore, to all different parts of Mexico.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-25114\" src=\"https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/carnival-triumph-cozumel-cruise-14-774x518.jpg\" alt=\"10 REASONS TO TAKE A CARNIVAL CRUISE TO COZUMEL\" width=\"774\" height=\"518\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/carnival-triumph-cozumel-cruise-14-774x518.jpg 774w, https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/carnival-triumph-cozumel-cruise-14-1080x722.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 774px) 100vw, 774px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>7) New Orleans<\/h2>\n<p>You&#8217;ll board and debark your Carnival cruise to Cozumel from New Orleans which is a huge highlight! New Orleans is an amazing city and I highly recommend you spend at least a few hours exploring my favorite part &#8211; the French Quarter. From your cruise ship, it is just a quick ten-minute trolley ride to the French Quarter which you can explore on foot.<\/p>\n<p>While here be sure to walk Bourbon Street where you can listen to jazz music and have delicious frozen daiquiris at one of the many bars. And be sure you also explore picturesque Royal Street where you\u2019ll find cute shops, great food, and my favorite place to stay in New Orleans, Hotel Monteleone, where you must stop to check out their famous spinning Carousel Bar.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-25112\" src=\"https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/carnival-triumph-cozumel-cruise-21-774x979.jpg\" alt=\"10 REASONS TO TAKE A CARNIVAL CRUISE TO COZUMEL\" width=\"774\" height=\"979\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/carnival-triumph-cozumel-cruise-21-774x979.jpg 774w, https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/carnival-triumph-cozumel-cruise-21-1080x1367.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/carnival-triumph-cozumel-cruise-21.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 774px) 100vw, 774px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>8) The Sauna On Carnival Triumph<\/h2>\n<p>The sauna on Carnival Triumph is hands down my favorite spot on the ship!&nbsp;I have never seen a more amazing view from a sauna and have never felt so peaceful and relaxed.<\/p>\n<p>The combination of seeing waves rolling by with the warmth and the light rocking of the ship put me in a happy trance, feeling grateful and free, just staring out to sea, thinking about how lucky we all are to live in such a beautiful world.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-25111\" src=\"https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/carnival-triumph-cozumel-cruise-9-774x1013.jpg\" alt=\"10 REASONS TO TAKE A CARNIVAL CRUISE TO COZUMEL\" width=\"774\" height=\"1013\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/carnival-triumph-cozumel-cruise-9-774x1013.jpg 774w, https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/carnival-triumph-cozumel-cruise-9-1080x1413.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/carnival-triumph-cozumel-cruise-9.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 774px) 100vw, 774px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>9) The Value&nbsp;<\/h2>\n<p>This is a budget-friendly cruise with very affordable pricing making this trip perfect for group getaways or family travel.
