Location of Isla de la Pasión.
A few years ago, a group purchased an island near Cozumel and created it into an eco-resort. Passion Island is a private island in the northern part of Cozumel. It’s called Isla Pasion, which means “passion island,” located less than 10 miles from Cozumel International Airport. This hidden gem is off the beaten path, offering a unique and secluded experience for travelers seeking adventure.
It is now the most famous beach on the island, with a secluded bay of soft white sand with crystal-clear water at the northernmost tip. In addition, it’s only a short drive from some of the best dive sites in the world, like Barracuda Reef and San Juan Reef.

How to get to Cozumel
Traveling from the United States to Cozumel is a straightforward process. First, you must purchase a plane ticket from your departure airport to Cancun International Airport (CUN), Mexico. Once you arrive, there are several options to get to Cozumel. The most popular and economical option is to take a bus to Playa del Carmen, a 75-minute drive from Cancun. In Playa del Carmen, you must get on a ferry to Cozumel. The ferry ride takes 45 minutes and offers stunning views of the Caribbean. If you do not want to do the “bag drag,” you can fly directly from the United States to Cozumel International Airport (CZM). Once you arrive in Cozumel, you can take the shuttle or rent a car to get to your hotel or destination. Remember to check the current travel advisories, travel restrictions, and entry requirements to ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience when planning your vacation.

Transportation from Cozumel to Isla de la Pasión.
To get to Passion Island, you can arrange for pickup at your hotel, your cruise pier, or your cruise ship, depending on your mode of travel. This involves taking a bus from downtown San Miguel to the bay of Isla de la Pasión, where you will take a ferry to Isla Pasion. This is the quickest way to get to Passion Island in Cozumel.
You’re going to take the ferry to the island, so it may as well be the package that includes food, drinks, and access to all the water sports and activities on the island.

If you have a rental car, drive to the ferry at the bay of Isla de la Pasión. The car ride is about half an hour long, with several bumps along the way. You are responsible for ensuring you are insured and permitted to drive this car on this road.
At the Bay, free parking is available, and you can board the small ferry across the bay for a 10-minute ride to Passion Island. The ferries cross a lagoon, not an open sea, so the water is calm. After you visit Passion Island, you’ll get on the ferry back to Isla de la Pasión Bay and drive straight back to Cozumel.
