Liane B. – 1. July 2022

Highly recommended. Everything has simply worked tiptop. Even one day before the trip, we were contacted and the details were passed through again. It is rare to find such a service. keep up the good work ….. thank you

Lea D. – 7. June 2022

My best friend and I were in Cozumel with the ship MSC Meraviglia in early March 2020. We booked the excursion in advance through Birgit. Everything went super uncomplicated. In Cozumel, our guide Miguel was waiting on time at the agreed meeting point. With a jeep we drove to the National Park Punta Sur. The car itself was a highlight. The surroundings are beautiful and not overcrowded. We got free beer and water. In the national park we saw crocodiles and our guide told us a lot about Mexico. After that we went on to the lighthouse. The view from the top is a dream. Not far from there was a beach. There we got a very tasty Mexican lunch included in the price and could move around on our own for about two hours, swim and relax. Miguel also offered us to go snorkeling with him. We even saw a turtle and he told us a lot about the underwater world. After the beach visit, Miguel offered us to make a short stop at a cocktail bar. So we were included in the planning of the day. At the bar there are hammocks where you can relax and enjoy your drink. On the way back we went to the Tequila Tasting, where we learned everything about the production and could also try it ourselves. Afterwards we went back to the ship. We can absolutely recommend the excursion and are totally enthusiastic about Cozumel. We would like to thank Miguel for this great day and wish you all the best!

Maraike M. – 5. June 2022

We spontaneously requested a tour and the next day we were off. At the port we were welcomed by Birgit. She asked us about our wishes and responded to us individually. A super tour, we have seen a lot off the tourist masses. Birgit had prepared everything very well and when we also wanted to snorkel, she also made this possible. A great day on the island thanks to Birgit from Leontours . Highly recommended!

Margarita M. – 28. May 2022

The best decision! Thank you for this wonderful day, where we were shown and explained some of the most beautiful places on Cozumel. The beach stay at “Del Cielo” Beach is a dream come true! We felt like VIP’s due to the friendly, nice and competent care by Birgit, as well as the perfect organization, which always took into account our personal interests! A ♥️-lichen thank you combined with best wishes, Peter & Sandra.

Liam D. – 18. March 2022

Private tour with Gerson. He has brought us closer to the island with a lot of heart and a huge knowledge and showed many beautiful corners. He responded to our wishes and we always had the opportunity to take photos and ask questions. We are happy that we came across Leon Tour. We are very happy to recommend you! No mass handling but individual round trip. Great. Thank you very much, Gerson. GRACIAS!

Leah D. – 15. March 2022

It could not have been better. We can recommend Leon Tours without reservation. Reliable, flexible and competent. Birgit, who is super nice, gave us an unforgettable experience on Cozumel and wonderful memories. She showed us the island, brought over the fascination for the Mayan culture and fulfilled our wishes (such as visiting a local supermarket). We were only on Cozumel for one day, but Leon Tours made us so excited about Mexico that we will definitely be back.

Manuel U. – 7. March 2022

We booked the tour and can only recommend it. Andrea accompanied us and really took a lot of time. We could learn a lot through her and had a lot of fun! Beautiful island with many animals. The tour was not expensive at all. So… See that you book the tour and I hope you have the with Andrea ???

Nicole S. – 17. February 2022

We were on a cruise in Cozumel and booked a day tour with German tour guide. Meeting and re-arrival at the ship has worked great and on time. The tour guide was very professional and super nice. She was also prepared for all eventualities (water in the bus, moscito spray etc.). Our wishes were taken into account and she gave us many insider tips. We had an unforgettable day in Mexico and would book here again anytime.

Leah F. – 7. February 2022

A wonderful trip, top guided and very well organized. We were a small group of 12 people, our guide Andrea has shown us great corners of Cozumel. We started just a few meters from the ship, then we went directly to the National Park Punta Sur, where you could see live crocodiles in the wild nature. Also a visit to the lighthouse is absolutely gigantic, here you have a wonderful view of the island. We continued to El Cielo beach, delicious food beautiful beach and raccoons made the day perfect. The final stop at the viewpoint on the east coast, was then equally a great experience. We can only say thank you and recommend everyone to book a trip through Leon Tours. Thanks to Birgit and Andrea for a perfect and wonderful impression of Cozumel.

Lena J. – 7. January 2022

The four of us did the tour with tour guide Birgit “Cozumel Punta Sur lagoons and beach”. Great weather, great tour, great atmosphere , empathic tour guide , everything perfect?Very successful day!???

Olaf G. – 2. January 2022

The tour was simply awesome. Varied, great scenery, great tour guide. For me so far one of my highlights in Mexico ? Birgit imparts her knowledge totally sympathetic, responds to the needs and you have above all at each spot enough time. Any time again!

Things To Do In Cozumel

D on’t let cruise lines fool you, there are way more things to do in Cozumel than you could do on a one-day stop. Cozumel, Mexico is a beautiful, tropical island off the Yucatan Peninsula and potentially the best vacation destination for you this year. With its fascinating marine life, year-round temperate climate, and rich culture and history, it may be too good to pass up.

Part of the appeal of Cozumel is that it is a lively city with fun activities for all ages. It is also one of the safest places to travel in Mexico . Every traveler is different, so here are some ideas of things to do in Cozumel that could be perfect for your specific trip. 

Swimming With Marine Life And Other Tropical Adventures

Punta Sur Eco Beach Park is the perfect spot for those looking for a seemingly endless number of things to do in Cozumel all in one spot. Punta Sur is well-loved for the vast number of native wildlife available for tourists to observe safely while prioritizing its preservation. Travelers can watch crocodiles in their natural habitat from a boat tour or from a bird’s eye view at the top of the lighthouse lookout. Punta Sur is also one of the largest and best snorkeling locations as any equipment needed is available for rent to explore its vast underwater reefs. The park’s beaches are also available for a classic beach experience. Other activities at Punta Sur Eco Park include massages, Tequila bars, walking trails, kayaking, and more. It’s the perfect place to bring kids so they will never get bored. 

Visiting The Beach For Free

Naturally (literally), what attracts many to Cozumel is its sugary white sand beaches and crystal clear water. Playa Palancar is a public beach for those looking for free things to do in Cozumel but do not want to miss out on a beach vacation. It is perfect for interacting with locals, exploring marine life, or simply relaxing. Although accessing this beach is free, there are also bars, restaurants and snorkeling rentals available along Playa Palancar. With traveling prices for Mexico consideringly rising , this is a need-to-know spot for the cheapest fun. 

Relaxing At A Secluded Beach 

Located on the less-touristy, east side of Cozumel is Playa Chen Rio . This is the quieter spot for travelers “in-the-know” looking for a relaxing getaway at the beach. Rentable beach chairs, and bars and restaurants are not located along Playa Chen Rio like other beaches. However, this makes for a less crowded and more authentic beach experience as most will stay on the west side. This beach does have stronger winds and larger waves that travelers should be cautious of, but the natural rock barriers within help break up these strong waves and create a nice lagoon area to swim in. 

Other Activities

Sightseeing and visiting historical landmarks.

Cozumel was once home to a historic Mayan community of thousands. Within the island were temples known to be sacred to the goddess of fertility, Ix Chel. These temples that were once visited by Mayan women seeking a blessing from Ix Chel are now ruins. However, these ruins are able to be visited at the Archaeological Zone of San Gervasio . This is the perfect landmark for those looking to not only learn more about the ancient Mayan history of Cozumel but to also walk alongside it and actually visit the historical pilgrimage. 

For an opportunity to learn even more about the island’s history in a variety of immersive ways, visit the Cozumel Museum . The Cozumel Museum is located in the island’s largest city, San Miguel, making it an ideal destination for those exploring the city. Additionally, the Cozumel Museum is the perfect indoor activity for those visiting the island in its rainiest time of year, the summer months. 

Making Chocolate At A Chocolate Factory

Learn even more about Cozumel’s Mayan history in the most delicious way: making and sampling chocolate. Chocolate is widely known as a European creation but its origin actually traces way back to ancient Mesoamerica, which includes Mayan civilizations in what is now Mexico. Chocolate was usually consumed as a bitter, frothy drink and represented many important things to Mayans such as health and vitality, religious ceremonial use, status of wealth, currency for trading and paying workers and more. Now travelers can visit chocolate factories like the Mayan Cacao Company in Cozumel to learn how this ancient delicacy was created by making their own chocolate bar just like the Mayans used to make. All beached out? What better things to do in Cozumel than to get in touch with the Island’s history while enjoying the up to 13 different artisanal chocolates available to try or even making a chocolate margarita? Nothing. So head on down to The Mayan Cacao Company.

Taking A Tour Of The Island Of Cozumel

At the end of the day, there are so many things to do in Cozumel but only 24 hours in the day. For travelers who want to explore the ins and outs of the island but are strapped for time, a guided tour is the perfect solution. Take a tour around Cozumel via boat, Jeep, ATV, private van or dune buggy for a fun, round trip way to sight see and learn the history of this beautiful destination.

Island Nightlife On Cozumel

There is no better time to have fun all night and sleep in all day than on vacation, so checking out Cozumel’s nightlife is a must when visiting. Most of the bars and nightclubs can be found in the main city of San Miguel. However, this does not mean Cozumel is limited on party spots. Travelers can find night clubs, beach bars, cigar shops and bars, hookah bars and more when out on the town in San Miguel. Looking for a bustling bar with plenty or patrons and live entertainment? Try Wet Wendy’s Margarita House . Want to experience a beach bar with an exclusive, luxury feel? Visit Buccanos Beach club . Or interested in chilling out and trying hookah? Try it out at El Cielo Hookah Bar . There’s even Cozumel Bar Hop for those looking to try multiple, unique bars or find a group of other travelers to explore the nightlife scene with. 

These spots and more, plus the island’s general safety, are what make Cozumel perfect for a night out.
