Teardrop-shaped Cozumel has seen some hard times - Spanish invasion, death by smallpox and a flailing economy - but these days it is a calm, charming island with a prime diving reputation. Known as Ah-Cuzamil-Peten (Island of Swallows) by its earliest inhabitants, it is Mexico's largest and most populated island.
In its new incarnation as one of the world's most sought-after diving destinations, Cozumel has gone through something of a growth spurt. The islanders now number over 75,000.

Suggested Itineraries: Cozumel
Isla Cozumel's only town is San Miguel de Cozumel, where you'll find many restaurants, bars, hotels, tour agencies, banks and other amenities. It is well-equipped to deal with the global influx - you can chow down on food ranging from vegetarian to Mediterranean to local mesquite-grilled chicken.
A 9-mile (14km) jaunt from San Miguel on Cozumel's west coast, Playa San Francisco is one nice sandy spread. It's a great spot to picnic, which is fortunate as the restaurants are generally pricey. A more isolated option is Playa Palancar, a few miles south.
