Cozumel, Mexico

I can only imagine how much written already about this famous resort. Cozumel is a real pearl of Mexico. This island is situated little bit to the east of Yucatan peninsula. Area it covers is large enough what paradise need. From your first step here you will feel its special beauty, attraction and Mexican flavor.

First and most profitable business of local inhabitants is trading. Mexicans are communicative people, prices are high as everywhere in Caribbean, but significant reducing of it is easily possible. For example, my friend bought nice sculpture of eagle (real, specially prepared) for 25$. Primary price was 65$. And there are a lot of situations like this. What really worth to be bought is gold, jewelry and especially silver items. Also clothes, souvenirs, food, handmade blankets, whatever you want. One of cigar shops looked very impressive.
