Too crowded now.

2/5 - Disappointing

Verified traveler

be aware of the "beach clubs" on Cozumel, their food and drinks are over priced, and their vendors are way to pushy, cant even relax with a drink and every 3 minutes someone is shoving cigars, jewelry, shirts, pictures with a bird, drugs in your face. Save yourself the headache and find a public beach away from the cruise port terminals

2/5 - Disappointing

AndresOspina

They make you paid $10.00 for consuming minimum in order to enjoy the beach. We found a spot in the middle of the road were we enjoy the beach for free.

4/5 - Good

Went diving there not to the beach
