    Anyone do the Isla Pasion by Twister?

     I am going to Cozumel soon and we prepurchased this shore excursion. We liked that it had everything all in one package. I hope it is a good one.

    Anyone out there have any tales?

    My hubby and i love it, the only thing we did not like is that it was about a 20 or 30 min ride to the boat. But once you get there you cannot believe how beautiful it is. They filmed a corona commercial there. The food is set up ok they do their best to make you happy. Bring so bug spray for mosquitos and sand flys. And enjoy the warm warm turquioise water. Have fun.

    Kattsmeows.......January 2009 my daughter and I did this excursion and loved it.  Hope you don't mind getting wet because you guys will get soaked on the boat that takes you to Isla Pasion.  Other than the 20-30minutes high speed boat ride, the island is very relaxing.  You guys should have a good excursion.

    We were there in Dec 2007.  It was nice, I thought, because not a lot of people there.
    Here are some pictures:

    Re: Anyone do the Isla Pasion by Twister?

    Just did this last week & loved it!  Conquest docked at Puerta Maya, so the Twister boat was right there.  You will get soaked.  They have a closed area for your bags so they won't get wet.  Take a water camera.  My shots all turned out crazy, but I smile remembering the wild ride.  Isla Pasion has chairs, tables, loungers, kayaks, paddle boats, playground & trampoline for kids, some shopping & a water trampoline (but that was out for repair last week :( )  Anyway, a buffet lunch is provided, along with sodas, water, beer, some mixed drinks (margarita, *** on the beach, isla pasion).  They also have a cash bar if you don't like the included offerings.  There are restrooms & showers, plenty of shade if you want to stay out of the sun.  Snorkel gear is available to rent.  Massages available for purchase.  So, the boat ride is really, really fun & not for those with back problems.  The island is so nice & relaxing - not crowded.  I would do it again & there's not many excursions that I would do more than once.  You can see my crazy pics on my facebook.

    Yes you can, but they are extra.  I don't know how much they are.

    Re: Anyone do the Isla Pasion by Twister?

     My DH and I also booked this excursion (going in September). We were wondering if the boat travels back and forth throughout the day (like a shuttle) if you don't wish to stay on the island that long or do you have the spend the entire time there and leave with everyone else?
