Port Maps & Information

Cozumel, Mexico

The worlds most popular cruise port, Cozumel, is just a small (12 miles long) island off Mexicos Yucatan Peninsula but it has a vibrant, pulsating Latin heart.

Everywhere is all action and activity from the music-playing downtown bars, cafés and shops to the watersports on offer from the glorious beaches.

Probably the best beach is at the Chankanab National Park which also boasts a beautiful botanical garden with 800 plant species. Best of all, though, is that it has a pool linked by an underground tunnel to the sea where you can swim with the dolphins who come and go freely there. Inland, there are jeep and horse-riding trips through the mangroves, while the most popular tour to the mainland is for the Caribbean-facing Mayan ruins at Tulum.

One suggestion for Calica not at all mentioned by the cruise company is that there is a car rental agency at the dock. We rented an air conditioned five speed manual transmission Nissan for $60 (including insurance) plus gas. (Jeeps are higher.) And so, instead of the three of us paying $59 each to be part of a herded tour, we drove to Tulum and did the Mayan ruins on our schedule. The road is well marked, mostly straight and entirely concrete paved with good shoulders. We then drove to Playa where our son got to swim on one of the beaches that afternoon.
