Cruise To Cozumel, Mexico

me and my familiy going to cozumel next month, it be safe to travel there??

We just got back and it was amazing!!! I highly recommend renting bikes in Key West to get around, it was the was to go, very inexpensive and I felt very safe. We saw everything we wanted to see in a few hours and bike traffic moves quicker than the cars.
As far as Cozumel we drank pretty heavily and relied on taxi's. We were indecisive at first and wanted to rent a car to explore the island but opted out to explore downtown and Chankanaab (sp?).
The taxi to downtown from port 14$
downtown to Chankanaab 11$
back to downtown 11$
back to port 10$ =$46.00
No Dui=priceless
The drivers were always interesting and we were BOTH able to absorb all the beautiful scenery! We could have saved 14$ by going to beach first but it was still a blast! One driver even took us to a hidden-away store to get a six pack of beer for 1$ each to take to Chanakanaab (beers were 6 for 20$ with 2 free shots of Tequila or chips and salsa. (the driver didn't charge us extra...he was soooo great!

BTW always price haggle when downtown...i believe it is considered rude not to and the further you go away from the front street the better the deals and Cozumel is very safe. We got a beautiful pendant that I had my eye on we talked the guy down from 95$ to 20$!


This trip was AMAZING my only complaint is the time in ports is not long enough!! I am already looking at how to go back to Cozumel and stay lots longer!!!

what do you suggest as far as beaches in Cozumel. preferable, sand, no rocks?

yea so i want ed to go and u make it sound so fun but i got this thing about sharks so....... what did you do

I am glad to have helped convince you. I was supposed to go back a weeks ago, but I didn't get to. I would recommend it to ANYONE... I loved it and can't wait to go back. I wish you guys well and have fun :)

Me and my future husband are planning to take a cruise,real soon to Cozumel,Mexico.I have never been on one,so im very execited to go.Were leaving in June aronud our birthdays.So from reading about your experince it is worth going there.

Just the same things that I said above. Rent a Jeep, explorer on your own, and if you want to do something... DO IT... Don't leave not doing something that you wanted to... you will regret that.

It is a vacation... treat it like one and just cut loose and have fun.

I plan on taking this trip Spring Break week with my husband. Not sure what there is to do. I will be leaving from the Port of Houston and I am not sure how long we will be staying in Cozumel. Probably a couple of hours since its only a 5 day trip on the cruise. Any thoughts? Ideas for making this trip a great one!

It was fine. Key West was still very much shorts and T-Shirts (as you can see from the photos) and Mexico was much of the same. Only bring something small as a coat for when you are in Tampa as it may or may not be a bit chilled, but still nothing COLD.
