The reef

Cozumel is home to the world's second-largest coral reef, an underwater world that draws visitors from around the globe. Snorkel at Money Bar, Playa Azul or Hotel Barracuda, or get open-water certified on the island.

San Gervasio

Over 20 acres of well-preserved Mayan history dedicated to the goddess Ixchel. Miles of original Mayan roads are still visible on the island.

Mainland day trips

Explore the ancient cities of Chichén Itzá, Tulum and Cobá, the Xcaret and Xel-Há eco-parks, and the cenotes. From June to September, swim with whale sharks off Holbox.

Around the island

Sunday entertainment in the square, the most beautiful beaches, the lighthouse climb, crocodiles by the boardwalk, turtle nesting areas, jeep tours, parasailing, golf and fishing.

Beaches

White sand and turquoise water on the calm west side, and wild surf, blowholes and sea turtle nesting beaches on the east coast.
