Things to Do on Cozumel

Cozumel's spectacular and varied off shore reefs have lured divers to la isla since the 60's when Jacque Cousteau first brought the island to the world's attention in a series of famous documentaries. Today the reefs continue to attract a large and international mix of divers and snorkelers and Cozumel is consistently rated as one of the top 2 dive destinations in the world.

From watersports to shopping to soaking up Mayan/Mexican culture, Cozumel is so packed with good stuff to do, that your only problem will be deciding how to cram it all in.

But what you don't catch this time, you can always put on your list for the next trip. An awfully lot of folks find this place seriously addicting.

We've divided the information into two parts. Part one is organized activities including diving, a charmingly laid-back sailboat trip, a fascinating cooking class a fishing captain with two fine boats, flats fishing with an internationally acclaimed, Cozumel-based op and a great boat snorkel trip.

Everything we rec on this site has been personally checked out by us (Carey and Tony) to be sure they are worth your hard-earned vacation dollars. You may find others just as good. But we don't believe you'll find any that are better. (But if you think you have, please E-Mail Us about it!)

The second section discusses things to do all on your lonesome. This is a great little island for exploring on your own. It's virtually impossible to get lost and remarkably safe. So, although we know you'll enjoy any of the organized activities we've checked out and recommend, it's entirely possible to have a glorious week on the island without signing up for anything special.

If you're considering bringing the kids along, you'll want to check out our photo essay on Kids and Cozumel for ideas on how to make your familiy's time here really special.
