Since March 1, 2010, all U.S. citizens – including children – have been required to present a valid passport or passport card for travel beyond the “border zone” into the interior of Mexico. The “border zone” is generally defined as an area within 20 to 30 kilometers of the border with the U.S., depending on the location. Regardless of the destination in Mexico; however, all U.S. citizens age 16 or older must present a valid U.S. passport book or passport card to re-enter the U.S. by land. A passport book is required to return to the United States via an international flight. Travelers with passports that are found to be washed, mutilated or damaged may be refused entry to Mexico and returned to the United States.

Delta and American Airlines are 2 major carriers that fly directly to Cozumel via Houston and Dallas TX.
Most reasonable flights are available through local charter companies; please contact a local travel agent and specifically ask for charter flights to Cancun or Cozumel.
Cancun arrival flights will need to take a shuttle minivan (you can reserve it with us) to Playa del Carmen (40 miles south of Cancun) and travel by ferry to the island of Cozumel. The ferry ticket is $12.00 per person.

There are several supermarkets but one of the easiest to find is Mega. It’s located on the waterfront in front of Barracuda hotel. Chedraui is another supermarket just down the road from Mega. For some of the best fruit and vegetables, you might want to try the local market which is located in the center of town. For the quick fixes there is a small shop, Sedena, at the intersection of the Airport Blvd. and the Ocean Blvd.
