Just walked around shops okay.. Read Less

We took the free bus into town. It drops you off at a flea market. There you can bargain some good deals but they will try to over charge you so make sure to bring some good bargaining skills and know when to walk away. Cheap massages which were very good. If you walk through the market there is a very beautiful beach behind it and a good restaurant. It has a Tecate sign on it. There is a great view of the ocean from the restaurant. They were very accomadating to my son who was upset. The chicken nachos were excellent. The chicken enchiladas not so much. We continued to have people coming to us trying to sell us stuff or begging for money. Some parts were beautiful other parts were a little rough. Overall nice place. Read Less

Once again, we just wandered through the area. We did find Mr. Hacksaw and had him create a gift out of a key for us. Other than that, we had delicious guacamole and some beers right there in the port. (anything for free wifi) Read Less

Was not impressed with this location. We did not book an excursion, just wanted to hang out at the beach but the town itself just seemed run down and there was not much to do. Read Less

Had a blast just walking around, people watching, and having a beverage at the bar across the street from the beach. Lots of little shops. Negotiate. $25.00 U.S. 1 hour massages available on the beach and next to the bus stop. Read Less

We stayed on the ship. Anyting worth doing is too far and the little pool at the port is as big as the ships. great day to enjoy the ship and weather without crowds. Read Less

Reminded us of Cozumel in the 80s and 90s. Had lot of fun just walking around town. Read Less

Cheap and great massages!!! Loved the shopping and the people!! Read Less

Port in Progresso looks quite small from the ship, but once you are on land and inside you realize there is a lot more than you expected. Vendors were a bit pushy which really upsets my wife, so we found some T-shirts and other souvenirs and returned to the ship. I enjoyed watching the bird life from the ship and watching the people try and get travelers to take pictures with them. Read Less

This was a very good tour due to a great guide . The 2.5 hour bus ride to get there , not so much . Read Less

Very small ruins, but it was nice. Interesting to see. Read Less

Just took a Bus to the downtown area then walked about 4 blocks to the beach and saw a variety of vendors selling their wares, bought a few bargains while sitting on the beach Read Less

Best excursion ever. Had the best time. Saw flamingos, salt ponds with free tacos, private beach club. Read Less

We were harassed so much by the vendors on the beach that we left as soon as we finished our drinks. We did find another place away from the beach to enjoy lunch, but we were so disappointed that our beach day got ruined by pushy vendors. Read Less

2 half hours each way on nice bus with toilet in back, 2 hours at park with guide and headphones. plenty of time to see ruins.....they are old. Read Less

One must consider that a great deal of effort, time, and money has been expended to bring Cozumel to the high level of recreational activities and shopping that it enjoys; while Progreso, as I was told by an involved cruise line employee, is "years away". With the cruise line pier almost 5 miles from the mainland, location itself poses logistical difficulties. Quality control of vendors, merchandise, financial transactions, etc., are all factors. There were a significant number of passengers who did not leave the ship that day compared to other ports of call. Read Less

little bit of shopping and then back to the boat for pool and jacuzzi time Read Less

Long bus ride to get off the pier. We didn't feel safe, and the vendors were as bad as Texas mosquitoes. If we don't have an excursion next time, we will stay on the ship. Read Less

Home of the world's longest port. You get on a complimentary shuttle into town from the port. We ate at a newer "high end" restaurant called Crabster (est. 2016). Service was a little slow, but the food was excellent. Also the water was "gringo friendly". Not much to see or do in the town. Read Less

Will never return to Progresso. You can’t even enjoy a meal inside a restaurant without locals coming up to you every 20 seconds trying to sell you things. I understand people need to earn a living, but it was exhausting after a while. The beach was also very small and quite dirty. Very disappointing. Read Less

You have to pre book excursions because it’s an hour and half commute to the city from the port for most excursions . Taxis a little pricey because of distance . Souvenirs are very nice and cheap here. Read Less

I got off the ship and took a taxi to the "Cornora Bar" by the beach and justed chilled for a couple of hours. I have done several excursions here in the past and they have always been fun but since I was on my own, I just took it easy. Read Less

Hot day, but enjoyable sights Read Less

There were vendors everywhere, harassing you. We finally found a restaurant to hide out from them. They post signs for the "Beach" with arrows pointing towards their shops. Read Less

Stay on ship or take an excursion. The port info is inaccurate and limited. The buses do not take you to the center of town, where you can catch other buses or taxis. No, they drop you off in this little enclosed market where they have signs posted saying "beach this way" but they just lead you deeper into the market were people bombarded you to buy stuff. It felt really unsafe. Then one of the merchants at the stores on the pier put a fraudulent charge on our credit card, I am so glad we only used the card for that one purchase. Read Less
