Frequently asked questions
Is Cozumel worth a day trip?
Yes — the 45-minute ferry from Playa del Carmen makes a morning of reef snorkeling or diving plus a beach-club afternoon very doable. Divers usually stay longer for the drift dives.
Where is the best snorkeling in Cozumel?
The protected west coast: the reefs off the beach clubs south of town and boat trips to El Cielo, a sandbar famous for its starfish.
Do you need a car in Cozumel?
Not for a ferry day trip — taxis cover the west side. Renting a car or jeep is popular for circling the island and the wild east coast.
