In general Princess is geared toward older adults. Of course it depends on the specific sailing. Holidays will typically have more families and children onboard.

Good video but not well informed, Progreso y a fishers town and honestly lots of Yucatecans we prefer our beaches to stay humble not like Cancun or Cozumel. We like it to keep it that way. And by the way don’t judge a book by its cover, do a better research Progreso y super safe, much safer than the tourist areas in Cancun or Playa del Carmen.
