Who Can Forget the Aqua Blue Waters of Cozumel?

Satellite Falls

Satellite Falls

The view of the sea was breathtaking as we relaxed in Satellite Falls.  Satellite Falls is an adult-only area onboard the Disney Fantasy.  It’s up on Deck 13 front, and it’s only accessible from two elevators.  Because of this, the location is very remote, leading to a very calm and peaceful escape.  Satellite Falls has many beach chairs under an awning for sun protection.  However, the dominant feature of Satellite Falls is a small “pool” with water coming down.  You can sit on the blue bench with your feet handing down or in the water.  Satellite Falls is a very pleasant place to enjoy a warm Caribbean day.  We found we went up there often to escape the hustle and bustle of the cruise ship.

On the day that we were in Cozumel, we watched as the ship came into the Cozumel harbor up at Satellite Falls.  We watched the Mexican city come into view as we sailed across the sea.  Cozumel’s picturesque blue waters were beautiful and inviting as we enjoyed the breeze from the ocean.

On our way in, we saw numerous parasails being pulled by speed boats.  I can only imagine the fun those riders had as they sailed slowly up in the warm air above the gorgeous blue waters.

As far as the eye could see, there was nothing but beautiful aqua blue seas.  We also saw the numerous buildings of Cozumel, as well as people shopping for souvenirs.

After a pleasant time in Satellite Falls enjoying the view, we wandered over to Cozumel to do some gift shopping.  My husband needed the perfect ball cap to remind him of the dreamlike waters of the Gulf of Mexico.

While shopping in Cozumel, it was surprising how much merchandise there was to shop through.  Not only did we find two very colorful handbags to cherish forever, but my husband also found his perfect ball cap.  He tried it on and it fit perfectly.  His grin was memorable.  He treasures his souvenir ball caps.  He wears a different travel ball cap each time he goes out.

After a splendid time of shopping for the perfect souvenirs, with my husband proudly wearing his new ball cap, we slowly walked back to the ship.

We had a quick meal, then it was back to Satellite Falls to soak in more of the beautiful, tranquil view of Cozumel before we departed.  We watched as the Disney Fantasy pulled out of the harbor and went onto the next Caribbean port.

Every time I see my husband wearing his aqua blue ball cap with a sea horse and Cozumel embroidered on the front, I am reminded of the aqua blue waters of Cozumel, the wonderful shopping experience at the Mexican city, and the relaxing time at Satellite Falls.  We will never forget the day or the view.  The memory will last a lifetime.
