Cozumel
- Hours:Open daily
- Admission:Free
The teardrop-shaped island of Cozumel is Mexico’s largest island, and synonymous with perfect coral reef diving. The waters within 5km (3 miles) of Cozumel are dotted with around 100 dive sites, some of them also suited to snorkeling.
If you’d prefer not to get wet, you can view the subterranean inhabitants on a glass-bottom boat or underwater submarine, or cruise some of the world’s most romantic waters at sunset.
Cozumel also boasts remote beaches, Mayan ruins, island scenery and swims with dolphins. Inland, the island’s lagoons and rainforest are preserved by national parks, including turtle-nesting sites at Colombia Lagoon.
Being a resort island, there’s a great choice of restaurants and bars on Cozumel.

Don't forget your motion-sickness pills if you get sick while snorkeling. You also need to be comfortable swimmer because you swim about a mile out with fins to snorkel (no boat). Also, the place where everyone picks up their Rhino is filled with mosquitos during the summer so make sure you slather on that repellent!
