Yes I think it is...but thats one way. I usually rent a jeep for the day ($39.00) and go where my heart takes me!

Be sure to settle the fare before hopping in....Cozumel taxi rates are posted at the taxi pick up piont at the pier BUT these prices are for a "car" not a "van". We hopped in a van and when we got to the downtown area the driver tried to charge us $16 since we were in a van. Luckily my father in law speaks spanish and was able to communicate to the driver that he was ripping us off otherwise we might have been stuck. Also note that if you get a van they will try to smash as many people in as possible from several families then charge EACH family the per ride rate. You would think going by the sign that says Taxi to downtown $6 per ride not per guest that the riders could divvy up the ride cost but they will charge $6 per family/couple (or try to blackmail you for $16 per couple as our driver did)

arrrrrrrrrrghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

There are three different piers in Cozumel. Your cab fare will depend on what pier you are at. I hope this helps!

Definitely negotiate before getting in. We had a group of eight, so the first cab quoted us $12. The second one tried to quote $14. My Dad asked them why $14 when ours was $12 and they brought the price right down to $12. It's an interesting game.

Taxis in Cozumel are all the same pricewise. It is standard fixed rates from point A to point B. Each and every taxi charges the same. That is why they tell you to take the next cab in line and not pick and choose.

i dont know if your interested or not but when i went to Cozumel i went on a party boat to the beach. I am telling you i had a blast... There was music, free iced tea, soad, water, fruit punch, rum punch. And the beach, omg i didnt want to leave... They gave you Snorkeling equiptment and everything. If you want to spend like $25 a person and have a great time i would look into it.
