Spend a Day in Cozumel Paradise!

I frequently get requests for things to see and do in port besides the standard cruise line shore excursions. Cozumel has one of my favorite places in the world...and I'm going to share it with you!

Paradise Beach is a 10 minute $10 cab fare away from where the ships dock or tender. They offer a little slice of heaven on the beach! There is no cover charge for use of the lounge chairs and facilities, but you are expected to purchase drinks or food while you're there. The guacamole and chips are awesome! For an $8 fee, you can enjoy unlimited use of a floaty raft, water toys (including a water trampoline!) and snorkel equipment. Jet skis are available to rent next door. Right on the beach they have hair braiding and massages available.

I suggest getting there around 10 am to claim a good spot. If there are many ships in port, the beach can get pretty crowded by noon. The restrooms are clean and showers are available to rinse off after a swim. Cabs are readily available for your return to the port. Allow some time for shopping before returning to the ship!

This is my own personal "Happy Place" and I hope you'll enjoy it, too! For more information you can visit their website at: www.paradise-beach-cozumel.com
