Great place to spend the day. Go all of the way dow to the beach, bring or rent snorkling gear and head towards the reef. It is somewhat of a long swin so I recommend you gear up especially if you are not a strong swimmer. The security guys will watch over your personal belongings and rest assure the will... More

This was the best $12 we ever spent! So much to see and do it is a must when visiting Cozumel! Snorkeling was great, beach is beautiful, saw several large iguanas and animals, people there are very friendly... We had a great time!

The admission price of 12 US buys you access to a lighthouse, museum, boat ride on a mangrove lagoon, access to a beach with hammocks and beach chairs. The beach is peaceful, the same awesome mix of light blue water and non-burning white sand you can expect in the Mayan Riviera. The day we went, the sea was calm enough... More

Beautiful beach in pristine national park setting with the best shore snorkeling we found in Cozumel. Reef was amazing with numerous fish. Need to swim out to reef (takes ten to fifteen minutes to swim out ) but route is swallow and there are two floating docks to rest on. Beach has food, drinks, lockers and hammocks/beach chairs. Not to... More

We really like the park there are two option here to do tour or to swim if you want to do both its more. But the lighthouse and the crocks were awesome. There are ruins visible from the road you travel on. The lighthouse is a bit tight and not recommended for kids as it is a steep trek up... More

We loved the light house. The tour guide loved his job and his beautiful outdoor "office" looking over the beautiful blue blue waters. The view from the light house was magnificent. We also saw the crocodiles in the marsh area and went to the beach for a little while. The drive in to the light house is worth the trip... More

A beautiful park with an amazing view from the top of the lighthouse! Even though there were a lot of vehicles around things were spaced out enough so you didn't feel crowded. We rode in on two wheels and had no problems on the terrain... got to see a crocodile and Mayan ruin too.. can only imagine what it was... More

Lighthouse view was incredible if you can handle 133 steps up & 133 steps down but beware no handle rails & very small spiral steps. Beach was ok but could not snorkel as promised due to the weather so disappointed there. Did not see any crocodiles either but the small Mayan ruin was nice. Wish we could have had time... More

We saw crocodiles and mangroves, climbed the lighthouse, saw tiny ruins, then went to the beach. We were able to drive the whole way in our rental car--it was a very level dirt road, better quality than the paved road to different ruins (San Gervasio). The beach had plenty of hammocks and chairs with shade, along with a snack bar.... More
