Cozumel is has the best of Caribbean Mexico's snorkeling and diving. Many dive and snorkeling boats leave port each day to hit the huge amount of sites offshore here. Places such as Passion Island, Gorgonian Flats, La Villa Blanca Reef, Pico's Reef, the LaCeiba Reef Preserve, Aeroplane Wreck, International Pier, Paraiso North and South, Paradise Shallows, Las Palmas Shallows, Holiday Inn Reef, Chankanaab Underwater Park, Beachcomber Cavern, and Punta Chiqueros all can be reached from shore, and offer a good variety of sea life and lots of fish. For those who want to head out in a boat, the fabulous expanses of coral reef known as Palancar and Columbia await. Perhaps our best snorkeling experience in Cozumel was outside of the hotel - Coral Princess Club. The coral make for some really interesting species, and many! Another recommended snorkeling area is Dzul Ha, south of the Fiesta Americana. This called drift snorkeling. Be careful of the current. People have said nice things about this area.
Cancun has many sites that are great for snorkeling. Maybe the best is Punta Nizuc, just beyond Club Med. The water is very shallow, and there are a lot fish. People have seen great barracuda in two feet of water, though, and became a bit nervous. Other good snorkeling spots are Cuevenos, northeast of Punta Cancun, El Bajito, north of Punta Cancun, and Chintales, northwest of Punta Cancun. The Nizuc Reef can also be snorkeled farther out by boat, and Aquaworld has created a floating island.
Snorkeling tours go to Isla Mujeras. Tavos Reef, Manchones Reef, and Manchones Xico are fantastic sites that need to be reached by boat. There are sites such as El Garrafon and Lighthouse that also offer great snorkeling from shore.
Beaches- The Beaches are the best attraction in Cancun with their soft, white sand and their warm, sparkling, turquoise-blue water.
Boats & Watersports- For fun in the water, try- boats, jet skis, fishing charters, parasailing, water skiing, windsurfing, kayaking, party boats, or gourmet dinner cruises.
Cenotes- Cenotes are caves in underground rivers. They are great places to swim, snorkel, and dive in the underwater caves. Check link below.
Cultural Activities- Looking for local cultural activities? Take part in Cancun's many Cultural Activities, like bullfights, folkloric ballets, museums, and more.
Ecology & Parks- Cancun's Eco-Parks have the chance to visit gorgeous natural environments, explore nature, swim with dolphins, and take fun rides on water slides.
Golf & Fun - Golf, Tennis, Mopeds. Rent mopeds and bicycles, driving go-karts, horseback riding, golf courses and tennis.
Mayan Ruins- Visiting at least one of the numerous Mayan Ruins scattered throughout the Yucatán Peninsula are historically very interesting. Don't miss Chitchen Itza, it's fascinating!
Scuba & Snorkeling- For some undersea adventure, click on the Scuba guide farther down on the page.
Swim with dolphins. In hotel zone area you can swim with these intelligent creatures- at the end of the hotel zone past Punta Nizuc, on the way to the airport is this family water-park that has rides and attractions.
Typical local market- Merrcado 28 (veintiocho) or Mercado 23 (veintitres). Both are downtown, and local buses or cabs can take you to either. They feature local handicrafts and gifts cheaper than the hotel zone. No, this is best for shopping for an inexpensive gift. Or buying fresh vegetables.
Hotel Zone Disco Bulldog Cafe is on the side of the Hotel Krystal in the heart of Cancun's hotel zone. Hip Hop Latin Disco. Jacuzzi inside the disco! It's the only nightclub in Cancun with an open bar all night long with top name drinks.
Restaurants- if you want to go to a different restaurant every night of your vacation, you will need a long time in Cancun, as there are over 200 restaurants. For a great restaurant have a look at Bogarts. We like Le Distilleria by Kulkulcan Plaza. There is TGI Fridays, Le Distilleria, Ruth's Criss Steak House, Rainforest Cafe, Outback, and many, many more restaurants to choose from.
Showtime at Blue Bay. Worth a look- is Showtime at Blue Bay. Ecological park in Cancun- also It's free. See spider monkeys, replicas of Mayan dwelings, ducks and crocodiles.

Transportation to the condo can be arranged once you arrive at the airport. There are shuttle busses, van services & taxis that can be hired for a reasonable fee to transport you to the condos. We are about 25 minutes from the airport, about 12 miles. The van shuttle services charge about $10 - $14 USD (negotiable) per person and will transport your baggage. Autos can also be rented at the airport from many car rental agencies. You probably will not need a car unless you are familiar with the city and plan to travel outside of the Cancun area. The insurance is very costly. Most tourists travel around Cancun by bus or taxi, unless you really want to see the country yourself. The tours will usually pick you up. The public transportation system in Cancun is very safe and efficient. Buses pass by the hotel zone every 5 minutes and are about $0.65 USD. They will even take you to Walmart for groceries, which is the best place to buy them. Driving in Cancun can be rather nerve wracking also!

Check with your cell phone carrier to be sure. Keep in mind that even if you can use your cell phone the charges can be very pricey, around 5.00 USD per minute. However, if your cell phone carrier can add temporary international coverage, the fee will be minimal and the per minute rates will decrease as well. Another option is rent a cell phone from "Cancun Valet" http://www.cancunvalet.com/ The charge is around $40.00 USD. This can be picked up at the airport.
