    Cab stop and shop after airport pick up

    Here is what I would do: go back and find a thread here about hiring a dedicated taxi and get the contact info for a scubaboard trusted taxi driver. Then install whatsapp and contact to see if the driver can accommodate you. I would bet that 98% of taxi drivers are trustworthy and those who...

This place is also...

    Cozumel Airport Shuttle Cost 2021

    I see by the sign on the wall that if you pay in pesos a private van is less than $30 usd. or a private car for about $15 usd. I paid the $4 and used my "vacation attitude" for the ride. Made a new friend who I got to dive with later in the week by coincidence.

    Yes, Charlie you are absolutely correct. Thanks for noticing. The chipotle sauce is very good on the ceviche tacos too! Had a nice michelada there too. Cheers!

    TODAYS CURRENCY RATES ON THE STREET

    I just got back and what I did was to take $100 in small bills for tips and taxis on arrival, Then when I had a chance to stop in at Mega I used the center ATM machine (did not notice the bank name) because it had a choice for English on it. I withdrew 2,000 pesos and that took care of my trip...

    Covid testing in Cozumel

    Monday the hospital by Tres Pelicanos and Aldora charged me $549 mxn. They were polite and efficient, if that matters. Have a great trip!

    More silly airline games

    I had LOTS of changes to the American flights I just took this past week to Coz. IMO I think it's too early to change things on your end. They will likely change it on you anyway. I would wait until the tail end of July and see what is out there.

    Things To Do After Morning Dives

    I just got back last night and I want to offer a few comments. First, and most importantly: do not shop along the water front. get a block or two back into the neighborhoods and you will find better places to shop. Second: GET PESOS and pay with PESOS in cash. Pretty much every shop on the...

    Non-diving fun stuff?

    Thanks Jon for the link, I had scrolled back 10 pages or so and found a few ideas but that link definitely has some stuff worth considering. GGunn, I love your suggestion to simply hire a taxi. I am hesitant to go driving around in a foreign place. Not worried about getting lost, more...

    Hi all, So my dive buddy and I were booked into Coz in May last year and that got scuttled. So we just rebooked for late June. We plan to dive each morning and wanted to know what other fun stuff we might find to do in the afternoons. I have been to coz two other times on cruise stop (gasp...

    Snorkeling At Playa Corona: Review

    I thought I should post a review/report of our day in Coz and our snorkeling trip. I decided to go to playa corona in the end, the taxi driver tried to sell us on going to sky reef instead. He even had a ring binder with a shiny promo card for sky reef in his cab. My guess is he gets s kickback...

    Snorkeling options?

    After looking at Larry's photo album I think the Money Bar might fit the bill nicely. Being close and with plenty to see I think we could enjoy a couple of snorkeling sessions interspersed with some food and drinks and still have plenty of time left for some shopping/touristing before our ship...
