After done diving for the day and not night diving what else is there to do in Cozumel---besides eating, drinking and laying on the beach or by a pool?
Planning our first trip to Cozumel and we would like your advice!
Having a hard time waiting until the end of April!
I want to get on the plane now and leave!
Thanks, Waiting in Arizona!
As Mike pointed out, it's not Cancun - yet - for which we are eternally grateful. One non-diving must-do is the around the island excursion.
In town, the museum is something all should see, IMO. There are the San Gervasio ruins in the middle of the island, but rent a car or cab it there; don't take the bus tour.
There is, I hear, a golf course there now, if you are into that.
You can do some shallow shore dives off Villblanca and La Ceiba (or whatever it's called now).
You can go to Chankanaab park and tour the botanical garden and zoo, and do a shore dive into the vestibule of the underground cave system.
You can go to San Francisco Beach and go parasailing.
You can go into town and sit in a sidewalk cafe sipping a cold cervesa (one or two won't hurt you) and watch the world go by.
Avoid Carlos n' Charlie's (and the rest of that mall) and Hard Rock Cafe.
Whatever you end up doing, the likelihood of you getting bored and wishing you were back home is extremely low.
