Is Cozumel Mexico worth visiting? I spent time exploring this Caribbean island — from world-class drift diving at Palancar Reef and Columbia Wall to the wild, rugged beaches on the east coast like Playa Bonita. Here's my honest review — the good, the bad, and whether it's worth your money. In this Cozumel travel guide, I cover the best things to do including scuba diving and snorkeling at Dzul-Ha, exploring the ancient Mayan ruins at San Gervasio, visiting Chankanaab National Park for dolphin encounters and sea lions, renting scooters and ATVs to explore the island, zip-lining and off-road buggy tours, deep-sea fishing for marlin and sailfish, and where to eat the best fish tacos, fresh ceviche, garlic shrimp, and grilled lobster in San Miguel. Plus essential Cozumel travel tips — best time to visit (November–April), why you should exchange USD for pesos locally, the reef-safe sunscreen mandate, and the do's and don'ts that most travel guides skip.
