Where is Cozumel and its brilliant diving?<\/h2>\n

Cozumel is a small island around 10 kilometers off the coast of the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico. It’s directly across the water from Playa del Carmen and a relatively short journey from Cancun International Airport. It also has its own airport – Cozumel International Airport – so it’s very easy to get to reach.
\nOnly fifty kilometers long by sixteen wide itself, the island is a picturesque spot known for it’s welcoming local village, lively nightlife and the quality of the food put out by the local restaurants. There is also a wide range of adventurous activities on offer, such as kayaking and parasailing, as well as more sedate activities like fishing for those who fancy it.
\nBut the main draw of the island is found out to sea. Cozumel is diving heaven. Even Jacques Cousteau said so when he visited in the 1960s!<\/p>\n
