Cozumel, the largest island in the Mexican Caribbean, is a world-renowned paradise for divers. Famous for its spectacular protected coral reefs, it offers a calmer and more relaxed atmosphere than the bustle of the mainland Riviera Maya. With a rich Mayan heritage as a sanctuary of the goddess Ixchel, it combines underwater adventure with pristine beaches and a charming Caribbean town.

Consejos

Tips for Family

The East Side is Mandatory

Spend at least half a day exploring the 'other side' of the island. It's a completely different world, wild and beautiful. Stop at beach bars like Coconuts or Mezcalito's.

The Municipal Market for Breakfast

For an authentic and cheap breakfast or lunch, go to the Municipal Market in the center. There are several excellent food stalls inside.

Don't Touch the Corals (or anything)

The number one rule of diving and snorkeling: don't touch anything. Corals are living and fragile organisms. Your simple touch can kill them.

Life is slower here

Embrace the 'island rhythm'. Service may be more relaxed than at a Cancun resort. Enjoy it.

Constant Hydration

The Caribbean climate requires you to drink plenty of water to stay hydrated, especially if you are diving or exploring the island.

Beware of the Sun

The sun reflects off the water and sand, making it very intense. Use sunscreen, a hat, and seek shade.

Be careful when driving a scooter

It is a popular way to explore, but be extremely careful. Always wear a helmet and be careful with potholes and taxi drivers.

Confirm Boat Time

If you are coming from a cruise, make sure of the difference between the 'ship time' and the local time in Cozumel. You don't want to miss your exit.
