COZUMEL, MEXICO (AROUND THE WHOLE ISLAND)

The island of Cozumel in Mexico has opened again and the ferries are going there from Playa Del Carmen. The Cozumel coronavirus situation seems to be getting a lot better now since it is said that the island will be open on 1st of June. I went one lap around the whole island on a scooter. The ferry comes in to the biggest town on the island, San Miguel De Cozumel where 80% of the population on the island live. Cozumel is an incredible island, part of the state of Quintana Roo, and the Yucatan Peninsula. It's located 20km (13 miles) off the coast of Playa Del Carmen. The island has many incredible snorkeling and diving spots.

My beloved Cozumel! Grew up there, every time I go back I recharge my batteries.

[@williamtaudien]

Such a nice island!

[@suprekoolio1227]

I went in December 2019 and really enjoyed it even thoguh i was only for 4hrs. Wod like to spend the night there next time.

[@NSP653]

You have a beautiful home. We go there often to dive, relax and yes recharge. I thank you and all Cozumelians for sharing your island with me.

[@shajeahar7374]

Can you make some recommendations on what to do?

[@NSP653]

@@shajeahar7374 Snorkel at any of the many iron shore or sand beaches on the southwest side of the island, as you move south of town. For iron shore, Money Bar and Sky Reef both are good choices. For sand beach, Playa Palancar is good. Rent a cheap car (I wouldn't recommend the scooter, it takes a long time at ~40mph) and drive around Punta Sur and over to the east side (wild side). Punta Sur park is nice but a bit expensive. If you keep driving the road around the island (as WIlliam showed in this video), you will find the other side is pretty sparse. There are turtle nesting grounds over there. Very cool if they are nesting/hatching when you go. Respect nature, no cars down there please....but it is very cool. Stop by Coconuts for a cliffside view and drink. Spend time in town trying the local restaurants, their food is amazing. I have a list of favorites if interested. See the ruins, visit shops up and down Melgar (main road on the west side/waterfront). We scuba dive, if you are a diver...it is some of the best diving in the world. To that point, if you aren't a diver, there are "try or discover scuba" excursions that are a easy way to try scuba. They also have snuba at places like Jeanie's where you put on a helmet that provides air and you walk around around the ocean floor.

You’re my hero William! So happy I can live vicariously thru you. Don’t stop! You’re a joy and inspiration. I was there and enjoyed immensely

[@rhondadami517]

Cozumel was one of our stops when I went on a cruise trip a few years ago, so beautiful.

[@jimscherl2307]

Now that’s what that island use to be like before all the cruise ships! Brings back a lot of memories! I’ve personally driven around that island, at least 50 times. Thanks for the tour! Keep posting, I’m watching! Be well!

[@williamtaudien]

Thanks for watching! yes I spoke to some local people there and they said that usually the water around the marina is really brown because of all the oil and stuff from the boats. It is a nice island!

[@anjirayproductions]

This was the best tour.

[@jimenajimenez775]

I really liked this video 😃 a trip around the cost of Cozumel, and the amazing coral reefs!!🌊☀️

i have been to cosumel at least 12 times a very pretty and natural place hurting real bad with no cruise ships

[@williamtaudien]

Yeah there are no cruise ships going there now :( It's a really nice island!

[@mpower6004]

Great job William ! In this time of the pandemic , you went out there to explore when almost everybody hunkered down waiting to see how this crazy situation going to be played out . When times are good it is easy to travel and everybody out there coming and going. But in difficult times as this one , guys like you showing everybody the way , keep it up .

[@williamtaudien]

Thanks! Yes I took the chance since the boats were still going!

[@mdimascio]

Revisiting this video of yours. This was the first one I watched of yours since I was searching for Cozumel videos at the time. Funny how it was believed that everything was supposed to re-open on June 1st, 2020! Peace William!

[@TheCouchsurferviking]

awesome video, love the map animations.

[@williamtaudien]

Thanks man! Yeah I like doing that for islands it's easy to show people where you are:)

[@wmfulmer]

It's a popular cruise ship port. What a great island to explore nature and the reef in and next to the national park, the restaurants and the shops

[@patriciacordeirosiqueira3818]

[@TulumToCancun]

I haven't been to Cozumel yet, this was great to see. Makes me want to do the same thing, rent a scooter and drive around the island. Great video as always!

[@williamtaudien]

I love renting a scooter and driving around in a new place. Thanks for watching and commenting :)

[@carolcortez8716]

Ikr!! We'll be in PLAYA DEL CARMEN 2nd week In June & after watching this video I'm more excited than ever!!! Ty

[@robshannon1180]

Renting a jeep is fun as well. And a little safer when it's busy.

[@andyaqui]

Good informational video. I actually didn't know that Cozumel was an island. LOL... Now I want to go there.

[@williamtaudien]

Thanks! Yes it's a nice island I really liked it :)

[@moneymixmachine4855]

I love your style of presentation

[@mdimascio]

Nice job. We have been there twice and rented scooters just like you did and always ride around the island. Last time we went was 2019. I remember seeing/stopping at most of what you filmed. Peace!

[@mexicanblood4367]

Wow que hermoso que es Playa del Carmen

[@NomadShifu]

Cozumel is world-renowned for its scuba diving and proximity to numerous top dive sites. The Mesoamerican reef system is the second-largest reef system in the world (after the Great Barrier Reef), and there is extensive coral and sea life with incredible visibility.

[@juniorandreozzi4675]

Another great video, it's too bad you didn't get a chance to check out the lighthouse at punta sur, it was our favorite part. You can actually climb up to the top

[@williamtaudien]

Thank you! Yes the road out there was closed unfortunately. Next time =)

[@chrisrichardson4632]

Nice video. Looks like you work hard on editing!

There is a sunken twine engine plane in the water off of San Francisco Beach which is great for diving. It can be seen in several movies.

Just subscribed! Great videos! I'm taking my first trip to Mexico next week. How safe is Cozumel as a solo traveler? Any cities you would recommend avoiding?

[@larrysepicmovies5044]

Cozumel Island "IS one big coral reef". I've been around that route twice. Great memories. Too bad you didn't stop to notice the WATER SPOUTS shooting out of the holes in the dead coral on the eastern shore. You must have had a calm day as the eastern shore winds can be brutal. A magnet for top-end wind surfers.

[@Abyssimo]

You were so lucky to visit Cozumel during pandemics, because you didn't see all these crazy crowds, especially on the western side of the island. I was there a bit earlier than you in February and it was so so packed. We even stuck in the traffic jam on the western side :( I love Cozumel for its wild beaches and amazing colour of the water with so many shades of blue and even purple.

[@williamtaudien]

Oh yeah I can imagine that it is so packed during high season and when there is no virus! It was really nice to go around the island without people. I really loved it too. Good you got to see it in February right before the virus panic started in March!

[@Abyssimo]

@@williamtaudien Yes, visiting Mexico right before pandemic was a such amazing and lucky thing to do and we spent 5 great weeks in Playa. This helped me so much to escape cold Canadian gloomy weather. Now I can't wait to go back to Playa. Have a wonderful tine there William and thank you for your positive videos!

Thanks for sharing this. I am headed to Cozumel in a couple weeks for the first time ever. Will be there for a month than maybe hit sime other cities in Quintana Roo. So did you feel safe traveling around the island alone? Where did you find a scooter for $15 US, i heard they are 30 to 40 a day? Will follow your videos to get a glimpse of your travels through Mexico. I will be in Mexico for around 5 to 6 months. Thanks again any any info on Cozumel as a solo traveler would be greatly appreciated!! Safe Travels

When I’m in town for the week, I rent a Jeep. It’s safer and dryer since it rains almost every day in the summer. After a dive I zoom around the island or zig zag thru the town for a bite to drink. Don’t get me started. Dive travel thru the Caribbean is the best.
