COZUMEL HEAVEN ON EARTHCozumel is just 30 miles from north to south and 10 miles from east to west, so you can easily explore the entire island on your visit. Divers and snorkelers from around the world agree with Jacques Cousteau’s bold assertion that the famous Palancar Reef, whose underwater clarity reaches up to 150 feet, is “the best diving area in the world.” Located three miles offshore, it remains unchanged from days under the Maya. While you’re there, take a Jeep® tour, explore ruins in the jungle or snorkel at Chankanaab National Park, which features the only inland coral reef formation on the planet. Wonderous? Yes. But that’s just part of why Cozumel will steal your heart.
