Cozumel sugestions?

[MTL=CRUISEFAMILY]

From what I have read recently it seems the Poesia is not stopping at PLAYA DEL CARMEN, but opting for Cozumel instead, since it is not a long port time, do any recent cruisers suggest any beaches over others or sights?

 

thanks in advance

If you want to go to Playa,they have a tender and if book a tour thru MSC they will hold the ship till the group gets back. thats what they did last week when it was about 30 min. late.

Take a 10.00 taxi to chankanaab park and take snorkel gear with you. It is an incredible state park to enjoy for the day.

I highly recommend a tour of the back side of the island. Ask to go to the Bob Marley Bar and to Coconuts. That side of the island is absolutely stunning.

I agree with the above post. The west side where San Migual is located is heavily developed (nice and active mind you - but developed). The east side has beautiful beaches too, is undeveloped and laid back with some famous tequila enfused beach bars. Just south of Coconuts Restaurant (1/4 mi. beach walk) is Chen Rio beach which is a local favorite that has a small peninsular natural rock breakwater that keeps the beach placid on more surf up days (goog for kids). There's a sandy beach bar purveyor there too; but Coconuts up on its bluff overlooking that azure water is worth the walk; great food and drink, usually a Mariachi band playing.

 

Taxis ply this road constantly. You'll have no trouble getting a ride (fares are regulated well; the cabbies are good guys generally).
