Cozumel Holidays - Travel Guide

Mayan people first settled Cozumel around 2000 years ago and the remnants of their society are still visible today. In recent times Cozumel holidays have become popular for tourists seeking Caribbean sun, sea and sand, but unlike Mexico's most popular resort Cancun, Cozumel was not developed specifically for tourism.

Cozumel has been best known as a port-of-call for Cruise ships and a popular location for divers due to the quality of the impressive coastal waters. More recently families and honeymooning couples have also become commonplace on Cozumel holidays.

Boasting a tropical interior and gorgeous white sand coastline, Cozumel Holidays have as much to offer above the surface of the crystal clear waters as they do below among the spectacular coral reefs. Caribbean charm and a subtle Mexican spirit are beautifully combined in the culture and cuisine of this amazing island.

The gastronomy of Cozumel Holidays consists of some traditional Mexican and Mayan dishes, although there is more than enough variety in the island's restaurants to please most tastes, including the ubiquitous pizza places and burger joints.

Ever since the late Jacques Cousteau made a 1960's documentary about Cozumel, the island has been extremely popular with divers from all over the world. The clear waters thrive with tropical marine life and amazing coral gardens. Sunken galleons and tunnels that stretch beneath the island make Cozumel Holidays a divers paradise.

The museum of Cozumel showcases the history of the island and its natural bounty including the wildlife and the reefs and the history of the piracy that went on in the area. The Punta Sur wildlife reserve offers visitors the opportunity to observe from a safe distance some of the amazing animals and birds that live on Cozumel.
