    Best Covid test clinic?

    I second the recommendation on International Hospital. We used them when we came back about a week ago, no reservations necessary, and we were in and out in about 30 minutes. They said we'd get email results in an hour, it was actually more like two, but no biggie on that.

    Tropical Storm Grace

    Nah, got here two weeks ago. That said, I did see a taxi pull up in front of our building yesterday afternoon and spit out a couple with some dive gear and luggage, I'm assuming that they flew in on one of the last flights before the airport closed yesterday.

    Tropical Storm Grace

    We're on the island now too, the original forecast had it hitting here right about now, and then backed it off, supposed to get here about 2 a.m. Been coming here for 16 years now, and this'll be our first hurricane. Its been interesting to see the reaction of the locals though, very...

    Is Cozumel cheap?

    Yep. Cozumel does not get the appropriate kudos for its dining and restaurant options, it is an island that foodies can really enjoy. There are a bunch of really, really good restaurants to choose from.

    Trip Report Cozumel Trip Report: April 1-10, 2021

    Wow. Just, WOW. I've heard of nurse sharks and morays hanging around together, but never gotten close to even seeing two together, much less 3 and a moray. I'll bet that was epic.

    May I ask, what dive sites were on when you saw this?

    Cozumel reef health

    We came back last July right after the island opened back up, and the improvement in the reef was significant, in fact I think I described in a post as the best I'd ever seen in over 15 years. The biggest thing I noticed at the time, and still do now having come back several times again since...

    Delta Airlines to Cozumel?

    I did the same in January, and everything was fine. The only real hassle is trying to time the arrival at the Playa terminal. The ferries still aren't at full schedules and depending on your arrival time at Cancun, and then the cab/bus ride to Playa, you could wind up waiting in Playa for 2...

    Covid testing in Cozumel

    I second that motion. I'm on fiber on the island, and my internet there is actually better than what I have at home in the states.

    Trip Report Coz Palace/AquaSafari & Fiesta Americana & Scuba With Alison

    Me too, and I'm glad to hear from this report that she's still on the island and doing well. About 15 years ago, my daughter and I went to Cozumel with two fresh C-cards that the ink wasn't even dry on yet. I didn't want to start off on a big cattle boat for our first trip, so I hired Allison...

    Need a recommendation for a Cancun operator

    A good friend of mine is headed down today, he wants to set his two daughters (college age) up for a dive while they're there. Besides a hotel resort course that I took 15 years ago before I got certified, I've never dove up there, and have no idea who to recommend. From a search here and on...

    Cozumel COVID-19 updates

    You and me both. One trip in July (by air, American), and one trip this month (also by air, also American). On the island for 3 weeks in July, almost two weeks in September, and we went out walking the town and out to dinner every night. No symptoms, and no sickness, and that includes my...

    Cozumel COVID-19 updates

    I have no information on hospital beds in use, positive cases, etc. I was on the island for almost two weeks though, just got back last Saturday. Steady increase in restaurants opening/re-opening. Pancho's Backyard, Coquelitas (spelling?), Le Chef, are three that I can think of that weren't...

    Food for thought about the island economy...

    What she said. They've lost 90% of their economy due to no cruise ships, and the latest word that we got down there last week was that they're not coming back until March of 2021, perhaps later. If that's accurate, the restaurant owner that told me that seemed to know what she's talking about...

    Cozumel Scuba Repair

    I second all of the recommendations on this place, I have been taking my gear there for a couple years. They do great work at reasonable prices, and they're also very nice people. One caveat - pay with cash there if at all possible, they charge I think a 7-8% premium if you use a credit card.
