Taxis are plentiful in Cozumel and rates are quite inexpensive. Rates are government controlled, but you should ask what the rate is before you get in. Taxis can carry a maximum of 5 passengers and rates vary for 1-5 people; there are some Suburban model taxis which can hold up to 8. Tips are appreciated. Phone 872-0236.

Most taxis are white. If you need a taxi, flag one down and you'll have one in no time. If the taxi you flag down has passengers, he will radio your location and the next available taxi will be stop and pick you up.

Taxi at the airport is slightly difference procedure. Before you exit the airport terminal, you can buy your ticket at the window and they will give you a ticket which you present to the next available airport taxi (these are Suburbans, so plenty of room for luggage).

It is very easy to go from Cozumel to the mainland. An excellent, and quite reliable, ferry service has been in place for a number of years. Ferry takes about 30 minutes to cross between Cozumel and Playa del Carmen; roundtrip tickets are about $16. Ferry service begins early in the morning (4-5 a.m.) and continue late into the evening. Schedule can change, please pick up a current schedule at the pier.

Take the ferry to Playa del Carmen and spend the day at the beach, or poking around the many shops. There are many, many restaurants. Or rent a car or take the bus to Tulum, Xel-Ha or Xcaret. See trips/excursions. It's easy to go on your own!

In addition, there are shuttle flights almost every hour between Cozumel and Cancun during daylight hours.
