I have never seen the vaping warning on any previous cruise that had Mexico on its itinerary, so I assumed that this was a new rule. The ship was taking it seriously as the Cruise Director made several announcements about it.
Puerto Chiapas is a very small port, and I heard that it was a newer port just trying to get started. Our day in port was an early one and a short one. We had no tour scheduled today and the day was very hot so we just decided to stay onboard.
The port had two large buildings – one was to have some shops and the other was a restaurant with a pool open for guests. I spent the morning walking around the ship taking photos. The port itself looked very well maintained.
I also got distracted by the birds and iguanas that were all around the port.
You guessed it. We spent the remainder of the day at the pool.
Next Up: Manzanillo, Mexico
