THE PLAYA DEL CARMEN FERRY
In Playa del Carmen, there are two high-speed ferries that shuttle people back and forth to and from Cozumel all day long. They run every hour, so you never have to wait long. The ferry pier is located in downtown Playa del Carmen, so if you're coming over from Cozumel, you can just walk from the pier - no additional transport needed. If you're staying in a Playacar hotel, the ferry pier is also within walking distance. The ride takes about 45 minutes with the regular ferry, or Ultramar has a new luxury ferry that can cross in only 20 minutes depending on weather conditions that makes traveling back and forth between Cozumel and Playa del Carmen a snap. This is especially helpful for Cozumel cruise passengers on a tight schedule looking for cruise excursions to the many attractions on the mainland of the Riviera Maya such as Mayan Ruins sites. |

WHERE IS THE PLAYA DEL CARMEN FERRY TERMINAL? |
|
Location: The ferry terminal is located right in downtown Playa del Carmen, about a block and a half from the main square and Plaza Playacar, where most of the tour pickups take place. See the map at right. Cancun Airport: Most people coming from the Cancun Airport use pre-reserved Airport Transfers. They'll bring you as far as the ferry pier. Then you'll just ride the ferry to Cozumel. Once in Cozumel, you'll take a taxi to your hotel. They're right there waiting for you at the ferry terminal. Very easy. It takes about 45 minutes to drive to Playa del Carmen from the Cancun Airport. Mainland Hotel Guests: We recommend taking a taxi to the hotel pier unless you're staying downtown, within walking distance to the pier. It takes about an hour from Cancun, 30 minutes from Puerto Morelos, 15 minutes from Puerto Aventuras, and 25 minutes from Akumal. Calica Cruise Passengers: Take a taxi from the Calica cruise pier. It only takes about 8-10 minutes, and costs about $8.00 USD. Parking: There are two street level parking lots and an underground parking garage within a short walk of the ferry pier. Learn More. |
