Arriving to Cozumel

1. Cancun Airport – Cozumel

Take a private taxi or bus as you walk out the airport building. It will take approximately 40-50 minutes to get to Playa del Carmen where you will take a ferry to the island. A private taxi ride will cost apзroximately $1000 – $1200 pesos, if you’ve been asked to pay more, ask for a price list that every driver must have available.

2. Playa del Carmen – Cozumel Ferry

1. There are three companies providing transportation from Playa del Carmen to Cozumel by water. Ultramar is enjoyable due to their high speed ferries, live caribbean music and modern boats, Winjet is just affordable. Xcaret is the newest ferry company that offers great service! Follow their current schedule on social media pages. Tickets are always available on the pier or online.

3. If you are crossing BY CAR, check with Ultramar Carga or Transcaribe companies and make sure to arrive 1,5 – 2 hours before departure. 

3. Cozumel Airport Transfer

The only way to get to your vacation rental from the airport is through a shuttle service. However if you don’t mind taking a short walk, you can catch a regular taxi just around the corner. 

4. Cozumel Taxi Services

Unfortunately Uber hasn’t made it to the island yet. Instead Cozumel has a unified taxi system that allows you to order a taxi through facebook Messenger/WhatsApp or by phone, although most times you can catch a taxi on a street. Every driver has an official price list and obligated to charge you accordingly.
