it depends on how long you will be there, and the ruins at San Gervais are close enough and should not take so long that you Can not do all 3. we did. We took a tour all around the Island and even stopped at the public beach (it is free) and was very nice, from there went ot the ruins and then went back to the ship for lunch then went back for shopping. Just try to find a cab driver that speaks English well, ours spoke it very well and was very nice and fair, tell him you want o go to the beach and ruins and do a little shopping too, we did stop at this really small shop on the east and got a hand made blanket for only $6 but you have to haggle to get a good price!

See the ruins.
When I went to Cozumel, I saw Chichen Itza, which I think is one of the 1000 places you should see before you die.
It's great, getting to the top is fun, and going down is scary! (but fun).

Beaches are pretty - I went parasailing.

And maybe spend a little time at the shops. When I went, I just looked around, bought a pretty skirt for the beach, and that's where I headed!!!!

Have a great time! (Don't go to dangerous parts of Mexico, stay safe)

Explore, I climbed the pyramids when I went. You can shop at Wal Mart when you get home.

If you are going to stay 2 days go to the beach and the ruins the guides tell good stories about the ruins and your all ready there so it is a must see you will have a little time to shop at the stores on the way to the ruins just be sure to barter they will go down instead of loosing a sale lots of nice jade and silver if you want to pick up a bottle of booze I suggest Presidente Brandy bout 18 dollars great stuff and maybe a Cuban cigar or 2 Got some great pictures from the ruins 9 months ago enjoy have fun go with the crowd be safe.Going to ruins wear good walking shoes.Its not a hard walk but far enuff for blisters with the wrong shoes.

Explore!

If you're gonna shop till ya drop, you'd better stay where you are. Everything's gonna be the same wherever you go to buy your stuff...

The mayan ruins are cool to see but only once. I've been there about 3 times and it just is REALLY REALLY REALLY hot and miserable. You wont have time to do this and shop and go on the beach. BUT there is a GREAT beach at the ruins that you can go to. and the shopping is just neat cause you can get stuff cheap and bargain with people. Anyway, have fun!

You should have time to see the Mayan ruins and hit the beach. Do minimal shopping. Perhaps grab one or two souvenirs. The cruise lines offer activities as well once you get into Cozumel! You may want to wait and see what types of things they will be offering! If you're looking for a spot to hang out and grab a drink Carlos and Charlies is quite interesting! Just don't miss the boat!
