This island, which lies exactly across from
Playa del Carmen can be seen from the opposite shore and is
Mexico’s largest island. The island’s biggest
attractions are the diving and snorkeling sites. There is
a lot of shopping to do here as Cozumel is a stop-over for
many cruises. The stores and restaurants in the island’s
town, San Miguel, is aimed mainly at an American-style public,
so places such as The Hard Rock Café and other franchises
can be found here. The ferry service between Cozumel and Playa
runs every hour, with each trip lasting around 30 minutes.
Fees are around 15 USD for a round trip.
