On the easternmost tip of Yucatán, reflections of a turquoise sea merge with echoes of a Mayan past. The sea's treasures, the land's delights... The largest hotel boom in recent years, linked to the charm of the Caribbean. Cancún: Mexico's exotic Eden.

A million visitors a year flock to beautiful Isla Cozumel, the jewel of the Yucatan, for its relaxing beaches, rich culture and superb diving. No wonder the Mayans, who took up residence here almost 2000 years ago, considered this sacred ground.
