Water Ferry Between
Cozumel and Playa del Carmen |
|
| |
 Comfortable
water ferries run every hour
|
|
There is no land bridge
between the island of Cozumel and mainland Mexico, so
the only means of transportation is via water ferry.
There are currently two major water ferry companies
- Ultra Mar and Water Jet - who provide trips every
hour between Cozumel and Playa
del Carmen. These particular boats are for passengers
only (no cars), and the trip takes about 30 minutes.
The ferries are not much different than riding a bus.
You can purchase your tickets at the port, then just
jump on the boat and go.

Ferries consistently run
every hour up to 11pm, and tickets cost about $8-10
each way.
If you are prone to sea sickness, you should definitely
take some motion sickness medication before jumping
on the ferry.
Once you get off the ferry, you will find plenty of
taxis, rental car outfits, and Playa del Carmen has
two bus
stations that have trips going everywhere in Mexico.
If you rent a car, make sure to purchase Mexican auto
insurance! Read
