Riviera Maya to Cozumel in 45 min

Speed boats for daily tours to Cozumel Island if you are located at Riviera Maya or to visit parks at Riviera Maya if you are at Island. See Cozumel Island Pictures

The fastest way across the channel is the air-conditioned Barcos Caribe ferry, which links Playa del Carmen and Cozumel roughly every hour with reclining seats, restrooms and an open upper deck for ocean views. If you prefer privacy or flexible timing, we also arrange private speedboat and yacht transfers that can leave on your schedule and combine the crossing with snorkeling at El Cielo, Palancar or Passion Island. Either option puts you on Cozumel in under an hour, ready for reef tours, beach clubs and island excursions before returning to Playa del Carmen, Cancun or the Riviera Maya the same day.
