Cozumel Travel Guide

Cozumel offers some of the world's best scuba diving for a reasonable price.  Lodging - Depending on your idea of travel, you can find a hotel to fit your plans.  I have stayed at the Reef Club, Hacienda San Miguel, and Casa Del Mar.  The Reef Club is an all-inclusive resort, which has its advantages.  Just be careful, they will try to get you to buy into a timeshare plan.  Casa Del Mar is a very simple hotel.  It is my top spot to stay as a diver - it is simply a place to rest at night before I hit the boat again.  Hacienda San Miguel is near downtown.  It is a cozy little place that is quiet and relaxed. Activities - SCUBA diving.  I have used Del Mar Aquatics and Sand Dollar Sports.  Del Mar is located across the street from Casa Del Mar (hotel).  Typically has smaller groups.  Sand Dollar has top of the line gear but can be crowded. Food - My favorite place to eat is Ernesto's Fajita Factory.  Tons of good food for little cash.  Try the Triple - steak, chicken and shrimp fajitas.  Plus the beer is cold.

This is a beautiful place, hands down.  Whether you are a tourist, a beach and nature lover, or a people kind of person, this island has it all.  Like all the other islands in the "Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico cruise destination area," you can find countless shops selling all kinds of merchandise, you can travel around the island and visit it's main town San Miguel, or enjoy the island's seemingly endless virgin beaches.  It's difficult to find water such a beautiful shade of blue.  To be honest, this was the first time I've seen such water, aside from pictures I once thought were a little unrealistic.
