Discover Cozumel: Excursions & Transportation

A coral reef paradise for snorkelers and divers

The largest inhabited island in Mexico, Cozumel is mainly known for its calm, clear waters that perfectly showcase the largest coral reef in the American continent. This makes Cozumel one of the best destinations for snorkeling and diving, a doorway into a universe of sea life flourishing under the Caribbean Sea's surface.  

Just a 30-minute ferry ride from Playa del Carmen and the Riviera Maya, Cozumel is a place where history is packed into the Mayan temples within the island’s jungle. Its downtown area, known as San Miguel, is the major urban center for the so-called 'Island of Swallows', featuring distinctive architecture that mixes Mexico's colonial and pre-Columbian past with 21st-century flair.  

Enjoy Cozumel's array of restaurants, tourist services, accommodations, boutiques, and cruise ship ports. Not to mention, transportation from Cozumel Airport will get you to your resort in a quick, efficient manner. Then simply relax on the white sand beaches of San Miguel's resorts and restaurants with a cocktail in hand. Visit natural parks with a crocodile farm, a stingray beach, or a dolphin aquarium. Submerge yourself into the clear waters on a submarine and explore the coral reef. Better yet, take the plunge and scuba dive to encounter Palancar Reef and other key underwater destinations.

And even on land, there are plenty of sights to admire along the way. What better way to do it than by steering your very own Jeep and viewing the combination of jungle and coastline along the way toward Punta Sur, the island’s southernmost tip.

With all the adventures on the sparkling waters of the Caribbean Sea, Cozumel really has something for everyone. Let Amstar DMC guide you during your time at this incredible destination!
