        I just looked up time zone for Mexico and Belize and it said Belize is 2 hours behind East Coast but Mexico (Cozumel) only 1 hour.  I guess this is right as it was on some World Time Zone website but just wanted to confirm this with those who have BTDT!

        I didn't realize I'd be dealing with a 2 hour time change....but here's a silly question....does the ship adjust to the time at the port?  So, we are scheduled to arrive in Cozumel 10AM and leave 6PM..their time?? 

        And Belize 8AM

        Then Costa Maya 8AM?

        Then what time are the activities etc on the ship?

        Not that I want to be scheduled and pay too much attention to my watch but thought I'd ask! 

        Thanks!

        so far,  I have not had the ship change times... they have always stayed on the home port time... just make sure to read the capers and they will let you know about any time changes if they do it.... and they always tell you to make sure that you are on ship time.

        The ships used to change times when we first started cruising.  They don't do it now, set your watch when you first board the ship and keep your watch on that time, so you don't miss the ship if you go on excursions.  I think that might be the reason they changed their policy.
