Hello there! We are heading to Cozumel next month for the first time and looking for must-see's or do's. We are in an AI but very open to day trips and exploring some history and architecture.

I can let you know in a week, I leave thursday. I’m going down to do diving as I heard its amazing and then im going in land somewhere, idk where yet.

Who you diving with?

As of right now, I dont know haha. Looked at a couple places but will look when I get there.

Check out Aldora. They treated us great. http://www.aldora.com/

Sweet, thanks for the recommendation!

San Gervasio are the ruins to visit in Cozumel. You can also go into El Cedral which was the first town on the island and where they held the first catholic mass in Mexico. When are you going? There is a festival to celebrate this the last weekend of April and into the first few days of May. Google El Cedral for more details. Chankanaab is the national park. It has great snorkelling, all inclusive food and drink option and lots to do from sea lion show to zip lines. Do you have children? I have young children and playa mia is our favourite beach resort to visit. Lots of water slides for toddlers.

Samantha we are staying just north of the airport. We are kid-less but your recco's sound fab! Thanks so much

There’s a guy on the side of the road up that way with horses. Literally just tied under a tree. Looks sketchy. I forget his name. But it’s actually awesome! We got like a private horse ride through some jungle and on the beach for $35 US for an hour. If you feel like a horseback ride!! Gotta barter or ask a taxi driver to take you to him and get that price
my parents have a house down there and I go every year

Samantha omg sounds amazing! Haha

you can’t miss him. He’s been there as long as I’ve known

if you want to go out to eat my favourite taco place is Los Otates tacos y pozole queso fundido and the gringas
everyone raves about the soup but I don’t eat soup in the heat haha

We rented a little convertible type car and drove around the island exploring. It was like a cross between a go cart and a real car. I don't know what it's called. Anyways you can rent scooters too. It was great because the island isn't as small as I was expecting and every beach is unique in its own way.

Marie Amaro awesome thank you!

Best scuba diving in the Caribbean! If you don't dive also excellent snorkeling. Rent a car or hire a taxi if you don't want to designate a driver and go to Bob Marleys Rasta Bar and Coconuts on the east coast. Coconuts margs are the real thing!

i second Rasta bar! The coconut shrimp here is amazing!!!!! Or just the burger

Haha good to know! Thanks everyone

Cozumel Bar Hop. Lots of fun and informative.

DONT rent a vehicle unless you’ve seen it first. Our Jeep we rented had no seatbelts... no speedometer no airbags... completely unsafe. We were stupid and didn’t realize a lot of these and other issues until we started driving...
Nothing happened and it’s now just a funny story to tell... but... walk to a car rental lot first. Look at what’s available to rent INSIDE and OUT. Don’t pay for something at a kiosk from a laminated pages binder with photos of vehicles and prices. Go to the rental lot.
