A tour to the island of Cozumel without visiting Punta Sur Eco Beach Park is not experiencing the best of this place! With a spectacular panoramic view from the top of Punta Sur, the turquoise colors of the sea blend into the green of the abundant forest. In addition, you may have a crocodile sighting in their wild habitat, a cultural museum of navigation, and Mayan ruins in honor of the goddess Ixchel, deity of fertility and medicine.
