Cozumel is an ideal Caribbean destination for all types of travelers. It is the largest inhabited island in Mexico, known as the plunging paradise for divers from all over the world. The island is located east of the Yucatan Peninsula on top of the age-old structures of the Mayan coral reef – the second largest in the world. The island’s lagoon is connected to the sea by narrow canals with underwater caves, bursting with multicolored tropical fish and unique inland reefs. The beaches in Cozumel are surrounded by dense tropical vegetation and unusual endemic species, and while these are also characteristic of the island, its greatest wealth is undoubtedly underwater.

Its name, derived from the word Cuzamil, meaning "island of swallows" in Maya, conjures up memories of its pre-Hispanic origin, the conquest of America and the pirates and buccaneers that thronged its seas.

San Miguel de Cozumel, the capital of the island, is a peaceful old village, with all the charm of the Mexican Caribbean. The quality of its gastronomy, based on its excellent seafood, is legendary throughout the region. Its provincial air does not make it any less comfortable or modern. Its days are sunny and full of unforgettable experiences.
Beaches
Playa Bonita
This beach is situated on the windward, or eastern side of the island. The waves are quite big, and the white sand is the ideal place to spend a calm, peaceful day.

Isla de la Pasión
It is located just north of the island of Cozumel. This island has small beaches where you can relax in almost complete privacy. The only sounds to disturb you are the waves breaking on the beach and the singing of the birds. You can only get there by boat.

Other beaches on the Island of Cozumel are; on the western side Playa San Juan, Playa San Francisco, Playa Palancar and Playa Escondida; on the eastern side Playa Chen Rio, Playa Chiquero and Balneario Municipal to name a few.

Climate
The Quintana Roo state is the hottest and most tropical part of Mexico and short afternoon thunderstorms are not uncommon. The rainy season runs from May to mid-October.
