Browse vetted photographers you’ll love in Cozumel

The island of Cozumel lies in the Caribbean Sea, just 12 miles offshore and an easy ferry ride from the Yucatán Peninsula. It’s the perfect destination for couples, families, and individuals seeking the beauty, sea and sunshine of the Riviera Maya, but with a more laid back vibe.

San Miguel de Cozumel is the launching point to this island paradise just 34 miles long and 11 miles wide. The city is a regular stop for cruise ships, but venture away from the harbor and undeveloped jungles and secluded beaches are yours.

Rent a moped to drive the road that rings most of the island and discover the shores of Cozumel, from the white sands and turquoise waters of Playa Palancar and Dzul Ha to the stunning rock formations at El Mirador. Listen to the waves crash, stop at beach huts selling Mexican souvenirs, and sunbathe the days away.

For jungle adventures, opt for a Jeep tour or hike. At San Gervasio Mayan Archaeological Site you’ll tour ancient ruins in the company of the island iguanas, while crocodiles and exotic birds await at Punta Sur Eco Park. Offshore the Arrecifes de Cozumel National Park and Cozumel reef system offers world class diving.

If you’re ready to unplug, it’s time to book a direct flight to the island and your local Cozumel photographer, then get ready to explore untouched nature and surrender to island life.
