Come with us for an exciting combo adventure on the lovely island of Cozumel. You will experience the thrill of jungle style dune buggy ride, visit the historical town of El Cedral, check out Punta Sur eco-park, and then relax and enjoy a guided snorkel at an exclusive beach club!
Begin your day by taking a scenic taxi ride to Playa Uvas where you will meet with your friendly, English speaking guide. You will then be matched to the 2 or 4-seater dune buggy. Please note, you are welcome to purchase the extra seats if you don't want others joining you in your buggy. Please check the pricing guide. Each driver will need to present a valid driver's license. The guides will show you to your buggy, go over the basics of driving in Cozumel and then off you'll go! Note that the buggies are standard so guests must be able to drive stick shift.
If there is someone in your group that would like to do the beach club portion and skip the buggy, please see our Cozumel Playa Uvas All Inclusive and Snorkel Beach Day Pass Excursion.
Following your guide you'll head to the historical town of El Cedral. That is where you can see how the locals live when away from the more tourist town of San Miguel. Cedral was the first settlement on the island and has a small Mayan ruin next to the first Catholic Church built.
Then you'll point your buggy towards Punta Sur, which is an eco-park located on the southern tip of the island. Your guide will stop at the more interesting sites inside such as the lighthouse, which offers a wonderful 360 degree view of the island, the small museum for a bit of info, and the fresh water Colombia Lagoon where you may well spot one of the famous large crocodiles, or two. You won't want to forget your camera.
Once again you will follow your guide along the scenic eastside road to where the pavement ends and the sandy driving begins! No worries about getting stuck, your guides will be there to assist. You will head down the sandy road about 20 minutes in and then another 20 minutes back. The off road driving is not over yet! You will then finish your buggy adventure at a gravel pit for some wild fun. Be ready to get dusty, dirty and muddy too! Your guide will then lead you back to Playa Uvas.
Once you've seen the natural beauty of Cozumel from above the water, now it is time for a guided snorkel tour over the second largest reef in the world. Playa Uvas is located along a protected marine park so there is a multitude of marine life to see beneath the surface. All necessary equipment is provided, so you don't need to worry about a thing. Your guide will show you how to use your gear and then lead you into the water. You might want to bring a waterproof camera to record the colorful tropical fish, coral and sponges. Once the guided snorkel is complete (approximately 35 minutes), you will head back to the beach club.
At this point you will be served a lunch with your choice of fajitas and sides, accompanied by two non-alcoholic drinks. After, you can choose to stay at Playa Uvas and continue to enjoy all the amenities such as lounge chairs, restaurant and fully stocked bar for additional purchases, facilities and shaded areas. When you are ready, you can just take a taxi back to the cruise ship pier at your leisure and expense, or leave a bit sooner and explore more of the island before heading back to your Cozumel cruise ship pier.
Note that the order of stops and activities may vary.
