Quote: My husband and I spent a glorious 2 & 1/2 hrs. snorkelling yesterday at Chankanaab. We arrived at 9:30 a.m. to a completely empty park and were greeted by a reservations clerk who barely spoke English and who had no enthusiasm at all for her...

  • April 1, 2010
Quote: Chankanaab is fabulous. The children's "pool" (really a saltwater lagoon) offers an incredible opportunity for kids and inexperienced adults to snorkle and view beautiful fish, aquatic plants, sea urchins, crabs and hermit crabs. The water maxes... Read the full Chankanaab National Marine Park (Parque Chankanaab) review

Chankanaab Park
Quote: Chankanaab Park was a wonderful day trip on our Western Caribbean cruise. We decided you only live once and to shell out the cash to meet the dolphins. We paid $100 per person for entrance to the park and the dolphin encounter. I believe admission... Read the full Chankanaab National Marine Park (Parque Chankanaab) review

Chankanaab Park
Quote: Chankanaab Park is a Wonderful Experience. Our kids did the full Royal Dolphin Swim, and loved it. And now they allow parents (or whomever) to stand topside (along the walkway) and take pictures and videos, so you're not locked in to buying their...

Chankanaab Park
Quote: Although most cruise ships offer shore excursions to Chankanaab, it is cheaper and just as easy to get there on your own. In fact, if you are really brave and it is not terribly hot, you could actually walk the distance if you are docked at the... Read the full Chankanaab National Marine Park (Parque Chankanaab) review

Swimming with Sea Lions at Chankanaab
Quote: Believe it or not, we swam with a sea lion! Her name was Nena, and she is the loveliest and sweetest sea lion in this world. Don't call her "seal".
