Transportation from Cancun to Cozumel

[lynnemari]

Hi,
We are flying into cancun airport ( with luggage and dive equipmnet), but staying in cozumel for the week. What is the best way to get there. We chose to fly into cancun because there were more flights there and it was cheaper. So we are looking for transportation that is reasonable.
thanks
Lynne

Bus or hired van from Cancun to Playa del Carmen, ferry across the channel to Cozumel. Count on about three hours each way.

this was put together by a poster from another board but it is a good reference on how to get to Cancun to Coz

There is private puddle jumper service - I have the number if you are interested in just flying over, but its not cheaper than the bus/ferry rigormorole, but it's much easier...let me know. CN

No problem at all, last time we did the Cancun to Coz trek the two of us had 4 large bags and carryons.
Getting to the bus in Cancun is easy, in Playa Del Carmen there are guys with cargo bikes that will help you to the pier. They do this for tips and it is whatever you want to give but a tip of a dollar a bag in customary I think. They same type of guys are on the Cozumel side, and there is a taxi stand right at the pier in Coz to get you to your hotel.
If you use the bus, ferry, baggage help it'll be about $25 per person each way. This doesn't include the taxi on Coz to get you to your hotel, that'll be dependant on where you stay.

THe Riviera bus was recommended to me by bay adventures. They advised me to walk past all the people in the glass kiosks at the airport. Frankly, they take advantage of people who don't know better. I had not planned on flying into Cancun, but my flight to Coz was missed and I did not want to wait a day. I used their excellent advice by calling Bay Adventures from the airport in Miami.
Riviera bus is an airconditioned coach bus. It was also very inexpensive. Around $10.
Bags are no problem.
