What to do in Cozumel
Once a pilgrimage spot for young Mayan women to honor the fertility goddess Ixchel, Cozumel is today worshipped by divers. The water is so clear that you can see clouds in the sky when you’re submerged 20 feet, and the Mesoamerican reef provides a menagerie of fish, coral, and other aquatic wildlife. There’s also plenty to tackle on terra firma. San Gervasio, the island’s most significant archaeological site, was a sacred Mayan center. Parque Punta Sur Ecological Reserve lets visitors explore coastal sand dunes, mangroves, reefs, and lagoon systems. Also part of this massive protected area is Punta Celarain and its historic lighthouse. Come Sunday evening, San Miguel Plaza brings out local artists, crafts vendors, and musicians in a fiesta you can only get in Mexico's Caribbean.

We are stopping here with our cruise in Feb. Is the snorkeling better at Three Reef Snorkeling Tour or the Chankanaab Marine Park? We are beginners to snorkeling. We did snorkel at the reef off of Playa del Carmen last year and loved it. Nice and simple.
