Did you know you can visit an island in the Mexican Caribbean less than an hour from Playa del Carmen? If you are visiting Playa del Carmen, you can venture out on a day trip, that is, a one-day trip, to the island of Cozumel. Here, we'll tell you how to travel to Cozumel from Playa del Carmen, and we'll give you ideas for plans so you can make the most of your day trip.
How to get to Cozumel?
To get to Cozumel, you must first head to the Playa del Carmen pier, which is close to Parque Fundadores, where you'll find the iconic sculpture "Portal Maya" and the Papantla Flyers.
Once you arrive at the pier, you'll find the ticket window of several ferry companies. Right there, you can buy your one-way tickets or if you prefer, round-trip tickets. The ferry will be your means of transportation to Cozumel, and the biggest advantage is that the trip takes between 35 and 40 minutes and that ferries leave approximately every hour. In other words, this travel time is ideal for arriving and departing on the same day without investing in another accommodation in Cozumel.
