WinnipegCruiser Posted October 23, 2008 #1 Share Posted October 23, 2008 I have put a hold on a Dec 20th Freedom cruise. My business is very slow that week, and I think I can get away. It is stopping at Limon, Costa Rica Colon, Panama and Cozumel, Mexico AS I understand in Colon you don't want to leave the secure area, and there is no topless beach in Limon. However I wonder if any one did the beach thing in Cozumel, and was topless allowed? I am not asking for myself, but this other couple who wants to travel with us, the woman really would like to experience it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big_duck Posted October 23, 2008 #2 Share Posted October 23, 2008 Just a guess, but I would say no. (I know several women who would jump at the chance and haven't). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HighSeaslover Posted October 23, 2008 #3 Share Posted October 23, 2008 Yes there is a topless beach in Cozmel. I just don't remember the name. Someone on the boards will have it just keep asking. The crew on our cruise were the ones that told us about it. The crew are a wonderful resource of info~~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
texhockey Posted October 23, 2008 #4 Share Posted October 23, 2008 I don't know if there is a beach where it is designated topless, but I have seen women laying on a couple of beaches topless. The one I remember last was down on the southern end of the island at the Bob Marley bar. I don't remember its actual name but there are 2 reggae themed bars across from each other and we just refer to them as the Bob Marley bar. It is by the entrance to the Punta Sur Eco Park. The other one I remember was across from the Casa Del Mar hotel. We noticed them as we were getting off our dive boat at that dock. It isn't really a beach though, just some sand and hammock looking at the ocean. Good luck finding what you are looking for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetskier Posted October 23, 2008 #5 Share Posted October 23, 2008 Technically it is illegal to go topless in Mexico. That said, there are plenty of desolute beaches on the east side of the island where you could go. There is a couple of spots where the sand berm blocks the view of those on the roadway.

irishgirl Posted October 23, 2008 #6 Share Posted October 23, 2008 Try the beach on the other side of the island. It's right beside of Mescalito's Bar & Grill, not only topless, but nude. Judy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While there is no Federal law in Mexico addressing nude or topless bathing, each municipality has it's own rules and enforces them. In Cozumel - as in most beach resorts - all of the beaches are open to the public. It is suggested that if you wish to buff bathe, use the beaches at the north of the island or on the west side. While you probably won't be arrested, if a local takes acception to the nudity, they can call the police and they can remove you from the beach.

schultz Posted October 24, 2008 #9 Share Posted October 24, 2008 When we were in Cozumel 2 years ago we met some German cruise passengers who were topless at Paradise beach. No one said anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave This is probably the best bet although there were 3 gals topless at Playa Palancar when we were there. It was no big deal(pun intended):D.

Cruise Cat Posted October 24, 2008 #11 Share Posted October 24, 2008 I think there is also a bar on the other side of the island where women hang their tops/bras up around the bar. I'd have to look it up, but it is like a little tiki bar up on a bluff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bthorn1108 Posted October 24, 2008 #18 Share Posted October 24, 2008 When we were at Mr. Sancho's, in Cozumel, we noticed several women sun bathing topless. As you walk down to the beach, they were on the far left side. No one seemed to bother them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheVegasMan Posted January 20, 2009 #19 Share Posted January 20, 2009 Topless sunbathing is a lot more prevalent and accepted across the bay in Playa Del Carmen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CRUISIN' TOGETHER Posted January 21, 2009 #24 Share Posted January 21, 2009 When we were at Mr. Sancho's, in Cozumel, we noticed several women sun bathing topless. As you walk down to the beach, they were on the far left side. No one seemed to bother them. Same with us at Mr. Sancho's in Dec. 2007. Two women were on the beach topless to the left side of the beach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G'ma Posted January 21, 2009 #25 Share Posted January 21, 2009 It is illegal to go topless or nude in Mexico..... The beaches are all public and open to everyone. That being said, there are many beaches, especially on the East side of the island, where you could tan topless. If you get over there before mid-day, you can have miles of beach to yourselves. However keep in mind that Cozumel is very family oriented. If there are families with kids around and you show up topless, it's not going to be appreciated. There are lot's of little places to get off by yourself. Cozumel is a sweet laid back place, where you can pretty much do whatever you want, as long as you don't impose on anyone. Rent a jeep and take off, for the beaches. You will have a blast. Keep in mind that the surf is very rough on the east side with infamous riptides so be careful if you go into the water....and keep something nearby to cover yourself if locals or others come on to the beach.
