Day Trip Tour from Riviera Maya to Isla Cozumel: Online Discount

Nov. 19, 2012 - PRLog -- Isla Cozumel sits off the coast of Playa del Carmen just south of Cancun. It is often referred to as the Riviera Maya's private island. Mostly known to cruise ship passengers and Scuba divers, the island is a tropical paradise with pristine beaches, excellent snorkeling, a historic downtown and Mayan culture.

While not popularly promoted throughout the Riviera Maya, due to tourism funding originating from resorts in Cozumel, the island offers what is possibly the best day trip for vacationers on the mainland. A 30 minute waterjet ferry from Playa del Carmen transports tourists to a very different experience. The tranquil turquoise waters make for world class beaches, coral reefs offer excellent snorkeling and scuba diving, the natural setting is protected by wildlife reserves full of birds, fauna, crocodiles and nesting sea turtles. The Maya have also left many vestiges and smaller temples available to discover by visitors. For the Maya, Cozumel was the sacred place of Ixchel, the goddess of fertility, medicine, the moon and other themes of high importance.

The draw back for daily visitors is to be able to experience all of the island's wonders in one day. The solution is an Isla Cozumel Highlights Day Pass, a highly organized tour that offers nine activities allowing guests to take in a great deal of Cozumel during a day trip to the island.

The tour offers pickup/drop-off service throughout the Riviera Maya from Cancun to Tulum. The Day Pass is an all inclusive tour with round trip waterjet ferry service, full island tour aboard a safari style truck, snorkeling with full gear and safety briefing, entrance to Punta Sur wildlife reserve where crocodiles can be observed in the lagoon, sea turtle nests along the sand dunes (May-September), seasonal birds both migrating and endemic, and a vast variety of fauna. The wildlife reserve also offers an ancient Maya lighthouse, a contemporary lighthouse and beach that can be straight out of a movie set. The incredible beach time also doubles as a backdrop for a Mexican lunch buffet. The small comforts of hammocks, chase lounge chairs and showers are also available, but without doubt, the mail attraction during this part of the tour is the beach. Clear, transparent water teaming with schools of fish. The turquoise color of the water is so typical of Cozumel.

A tour guide narrates interesting information about the island and its culture while on board the Safari vehicle. There is also complimentary water on board. The tour ends in Historic Downtown Cozumel where some free time is excellent for visiting duty free shops or restaurants for a relaxing break around the typical Mexican main square. Cozumel's historic downtown is the oldest established city on the eastern coast of the Yucatan Peninsula.

A similar, more adrenalin filled island tour allows you to drive a Polaris RZR on and off road around the island. The Isla Cozumel Polaris Day Trip offers similar activities as the Isla Cozumel Highlights Day Pass.
