🌊🐚 Cozumel’s El Cielo Beach: Mexico’s Glassy Paradise! 🏝️💎
El Cielo (“The Sky”) Beach on Cozumel Island is a Caribbean fever dream! 🌅 We’ve hit beaches in Cancún, Isla Mujeres, and Tulum—this one’s our #1. 🏆 🤿 Snorkeling Safari: How to Get There: Book a Cozumel Signature Snorkeling Tour! 🚤 Most tours include El Cielo and hit: Columbia Reef 🪸: Basic reef snorkeling (nothing special). Starfish Sanctuary 🌟: Wade through waist-deep water to cuddle plump starfish! 📸 El Cielo 🏖️: 30 minutes on powder-white sand with turquoise water so clear, you’ll gasp. Cost: $60 USD for 4-5 hours of bliss. 💸 Bonus: We spotted wild dolphins 🐬 and a manta ray leaping on the way back! 🎉 🐢 Scuba Diving: Cozumel’s drift diving is world-famous! 🌊 We missed the iconic Santa Rosa Wall due to weather 🌧️, but still scored a giant eagle ray sighting! 🦅 Pro tip: Shop by reviews, not price—the island’s dive shops are hyper-competitive. 🚢 Transport: Ferry from Playa del Carmen: ⏰ 45 mins. Operated by Winjet and Ultramar. Parking: Skip the hassle—taxi to the ferry terminal. 🚗 Parking near the dock is a 10-min walk away. On the Island: 🚫 No need to rent a car! Stay near the ferry dock—most dive shops and tours include hotel pickups. 🏨 The island’s “wild” beaches on the east side are stunning but rough (think: wind + waves). 🌪️ 💡 Pro Tips: Bring Cash: Beach clubs and street vendors are cash-only. 💵 Book Tours Early: El Cielo’s tours sell out! 📅 Skip the Public Beaches: They’re rare. Opt for a tour—worth every peso. 🌺 #CancúnAdventures #CozumelMagic #GlassSea 🇲🇽🌴
