Cozumel?

We had someone tell us last week on a ship that Cozumel was "closed"?? I did not give it much thought, but still wonder, is it safe? Ferries, tours etc.... any issues lately:confused:?

Cozumel is OPEN and as safe as ever. Much safer than many cities in the USA.

We find Cozumel to be one of the safest and easiest ports in the Western Caribbean. No need for a ship tour unless you are heading to the mainland (Mayan ruins, etc.) Relax, do some homework to figure out what you want to do, and enjoy. :cool:

What in the world does “closed” mean?

It is certainly not closed. They aren't having the problems Cancun has.

I asked the same question, when the woman told me that is was closed? She claimed you could only venture into the dock area and no where else?? As I stated above, I didn't give it much thought.

I just thought I would ask about current conditions there. We are going in the fall, and have always had a "great time" in Cozumel, and the "Mainland" as well.:):)

Sounds like that lady had some bad info.

The Harbor was closed to small boats - scuba diving, etc. for a few days due to high winds/waves. It has nothing to do with cruise ships. The Harbormaster closes the harbor due to safety several times a year, it is his job to keep everyone in small boats safe.

When this lady told you that.... Was she at a bar.....at 8am.......on her 12th drink? :)

If Cozumel was closed do you really think a cruise ship would stop there? There would be a lot of ticked off passengers if they weren't allowed to leave the port area

This is probably what she meant:

Not sure how you could infer that Cozumel was “closed” because cruise ships weren’t chartering ferries to the mainland.

Because common sense isn't common anymore;p

Could she have been referring to the ferry explosion last month?
