Cozumel
Mexico
Cozumel, a mostly undeveloped Mexican island in the Caribbean Sea, is a popular cruise ship port of call famed for its scuba diving. At Arrecifes de Cozumel National Park, there's diving spots around a section of the Mesoamerican Reef and the Museo Subacuático de Arte’s submerged sculptures. Chankanaab is an eco park surrounding a lagoon with underwater caverns, home to dolphins, manatees and sea turtles.
Playa Palancar and the other main beaches for swimming, sunbathing and snorkeling are on the calm, sandy west coast, site of the island’s only town, laid-back San Miguel de Cozumel. Mayan archaeological sites include San Gervasio and El Cedral, a religious complex that may have contained a lighthouse. On the southern tip of the island, crocodiles can be glimpsed in the Parque Punta Sur ecological reserve, especially near the Celarain Lighthouse. Off-island, visitors go fishing for blue and white marlin, sailfish and swordfish on deep-sea charter tours.
