Cozumel Vacation Packages: An Island Escape
This small island in the Caribbean is a top scuba diving destination. Not surprising, as it is encircled with the second largest coral reef in the world. Whether you’re a pro-diver, a first-time snorkeler, or just an enthusiast who would rather observe it all without getting wet there are ample opportunities to do so. Back on terra firma, enjoy the gorgeous white-sand beaches, the beautiful city of San Miguel, the Mayan ruins, and freshwater cenotes.
