Activities in Cozumel fill the days you are not diving, and the mornings the boat leaves without half your party.

They fall into a few honest groups. On the water there are snorkeling trips, catamaran and sailing charters, and fishing boats. Inland there are ATV and jungle runs, the Maya sites, and the parks at the southern end of the island. The one real constraint on any of it is the dry window at the end of a trip before a flight, which rules out nothing on this page. What varies between operators is duration, group size, what the price covers and where a trip actually starts from, none of which is reliable from a title alone. The sensible approach is to pick the day first and the operator second, rather than the reverse.

The sections below cover each type with the operators listed under them. If the reef is still the point, snorkeling tours is the widest door, and for a slower day on the water, boat and sailing tours covers the charters.
