A Cozumel Vacation is Still a Hot Ticket
Southern Mexico has long been a popular vacation destination and right now Mexico is a bargain. One of the hottest spots in Mexico is found on a little island just off the coast of the Yucatan peninsula called Isla Cozumel. Surrounded by the Caribbean Sea and lined with fun activities for everyone and every budget, a Cozumel vacation is still a magnetic draw.
The U.S. dollar still goes a long way in Mexico, with current exchange rates improving over the highly favorable rates of previous years. And the people who own or work at the tourist destinations throughout Mexico truly get it. From the manager to the housekeeper, from the huge luxury resort to the tiny seaside inn, they all attempt to make your Cozumel Mexico vacation a pleasurable and memorable experience.
To be sure, college kids head south for a Cozumel spring break, but they are not the rowdy crowds of Cancun. Cozumel is by far a more family oriented locale that caters to the typical tourist set far more than wild partiers.
In Cozumel SCUBA diving guides can provide a day anyone would find memorable and exhilarating. These locations can get you dive certified and provide all the equipment necessary. Cozumel diving means scores of off-shore reefs and ocean life in every color of the rainbow. Even a simple snorkeling trip can reveal spectacular sights of colorful fish and mystifying corals, sponges and plant life. The Caribbean Sea surrounds the island so the water is always warm, clear and calm.
Aside from the natural beauty, a big draw to Cozumel is certainly the nightlife. It is important to remember that just as in most Latin American or Caribbean locales, time is looked at much differently than they way most Americans view it. Mornings start later and afternoon siestas to escape the heat are common. Once the workday is done the heat still lingers, so the local restaurant and bar scene does not really start happening until well after dark – but once it starts it goes well into the night. Most of the Cozumel nightlife – from rowdy, young and hip, to upscale, modern and expensive – is located within a few square miles. Taxi cabs are very cheap and readily available so hiring a driver to take your group around all evening is easy.
Walks along the waterfront can be a cozier and quieter way to enjoy the Cozumel nights, and you can likely see live music and little festivals on the plaza. A Cozumel vacation never fails to impress.
