Are you in the inspiration? I did those two ports. We were in caymans for a short amount of time and did an excursion in Cozumen. Honestly i'd save your money on excursions and just go drinking on the beach or rent a jet ski.

Also if you're on the inspiration the pool is tiny and make sure you have an outside cabin.

Grand Cayman- We took a taxi down a mile or two to a bar, got some drinks and walked along the beach and swam out from there, would absolutely do the same again.

Cozumel- Best snorkeling we have ever had. Clear water, tons of fish, great time.

I've been on 5 cruises --- from my experience it has been very windy on the deck at night at times, which made it slightly chilly.

Food is generally really good....Depends on the cruise line and the ship a lot, not very familiar with Carnival (I was like 10 years old when I went on a Carnival Cruise).

Grand Cayman --- must do = swim with the stingrays.

If you are going in the summer, it really isn't chilly. Stingray city in the Caymans was cool. In Cozumel, we went on a dune buggy tour, which was pretty cool as well. I would advise to book your excursions not with the cruise ship, but on your own.

When are you going? Its hot as hell in the summer in Cayman. Like cant walk on the sane hot. Even at night it is 90+ on a lot of nights. Id say a must is Stingray City. But, if you want to save the money and have a good time, take a Taxi to "Hell" which is cool and nearby is Cemetery Reef for great snorkeling. Ive been there a few times and have seen (Baracuda, Reef Shark, Some other shark that scared the fuck outta me, Giant Sea Turtle, and tons of fish).

I cant recall if Cemetary Reef is the one by Hell, but its the best one IMO. Close 2nd would be Rum Point.
