pjb3832 Posted December 18, 2011 #1 Share Posted December 18, 2011 We are cruising on Carnival Paradise in January 2012. When we dock in Cozumel, is it feasible to walk to downtown San Miguel? A 2 - 3 mile walk is fine as long as there are sidewalks or walkways. I am not sure which pier we will dock at but it looks like the Carnival pier furthest south would be the furthest. I have seen conflicting information stating it is anywhere from 2.5 to 5 miles south of the town center. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Oct I rented a car for $50 and drove around the island. It was nice seeing parts of the island I had never been to before.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahoys Posted December 18, 2011 #3 Share Posted December 18, 2011 If you go to Google Earth, you can track the route from the farthest dock to downtown. Since you're going in January, you won't have too much trouble with the humidity--in the summer I'd never attempt it. You might want to plan to take a taxi into downtown and then decide whether or not to walk back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take a look at this and see if it helps any.... http://www.puertamaya.com/port-schedule.aspx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scperk Posted December 18, 2011 #5 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Its at least 4/5 miles to downtown..my wife and sister attempted it and ended up flagging a cab about halfway..I would not waste any time walking unless you just want to get the exercise....Dennis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colorado Kat Posted December 18, 2011 #6 Share Posted December 18, 2011 We've done that walk many years ago, and it is do-able. Cabs don't cost that much, so I would suggest a cab. Last year, when it was just 2 of us, I asked loudly if there were 2 people together who wanted to share a cab, and we were able to cut the price in half.
