Discover the natural and social history of the island at Museo de la Isla de Cozumel. A must-stop for first-time visitors of the island, this small museum occupies the adapted colonial-style building complete with a grand staircase that used to be a hotel back in the 1930s. Most of the exhibits are featured in four main rooms. The highlights of the ground floor are a large colorful diorama of underwater life and a replica of a Mayan house behind the grand staircase. Do not miss the "Pirates of the Caribbean" section on the second floor. Make Museo de la Isla de Cozumel a centerpiece of your Cozumel vacation itinerary, and find what else is worth visiting using our Cozumel tour planner.
