Okay folks, here’s the dilemma… I have two very good friends who don’t know each other. Both have independently written guides to Cozumel. I want to support both of them, as they have done a fine job of presenting my home, Cozumel. So… in no particular order, I’d like to present TWO guides to Cozumel: “Cozumel: the Complete Guide” and “Best of Cozumel”, by the author of Local Knowledge Travel Guides. Local Knowledge also recently published two additional guides “Best of Playa del Carmen” and “Best of Isla Mujeres”. The following descriptions come direct from their website and press release.
***
Cozumel Vacation the complete guide offers more than 200 pages of reviews, business listings, tours, attractions, and money saving tips for island visitors. Cozumel, the largest island in Mexico is a vacation hotspot visited by thousands of people each day. Some stay only for a day and some stay for weeks at a time. Visitors travel to Cozumel arriving by plane, ferry, and cruise ship. This beautiful island has long been known as a cruise ship and diver's paradise. World-famous dive sites discovered by Jacques Cousteau and beautiful white beaches, Mexico's Cozumel is home to one of the biggest barrier reef systems in the world. For the past ten years, author Patricia A. Holt has been coming to Cozumel and experiencing all it has to offer. The one thing Cozumel was missing was a complete guidebook for visitors to find things. That was her purpose in compiling over 10 years of real life experience into the perfect island directory. Now you can benefit from the knowledge she has gained visiting Cozumel for more than a decade. You can relax and enjoy your vacation knowing that anything you need to know from A to Z is at your fingertips. If you are coming to Cozumel for the first time or coming back for the 10th time this book is a must have for your travel bag. THE PRICE IS THE BEST PART ONLY $12.99. (My note: this is the download price, the paperback is $17.95 plus shipping.)
You get complete listings, reviews, and prices of all: restaurants, tour operators, rental companies, hotels, shops, AND you will have all local phone numbers, websites, emails, and contact information. The book also has a map and gives directions on how to get around and where to go. www.guide2cozumel.com
