Things to do in Cozumel, Quintana Roo: The Best Museums

October 28, 2021 Natalie Tallman

One of the top diving destinations in the world for its bright storybook coral reefs, the island of Cozumel is also home to a variety of natural beaches. Choose a beach with soft white sand for relaxing, or snorkel off a rockier vista. A destination for both adventure and romance, Cozumel has a year-round Caribbean climate, untrammeled jungle and abundant nightlife.

Planetario de Cozumel Cha'an Ka'an

Reviewed By 661MandyReid - Lake Forest, United States

I cannot say enough wonderful things about this place. First, the staff are amazing! Tony was very educated and very passionate about what he does. We ended up watching a movie in the Dome and it was absolutely incredible!! The imaging, the sound, everything was beyond our expectations. Second, do not be afraid to make the small trip out to this place. It is not that far from town and it is a must do!!! I was bummed our itinerary did not allow us time do participate in the star gazing because I'm sure it would have been incredible. I will definitely be doing that the next time I am in Cozumel. Also, for those that are worried about Covid19, they take all the necessary precautions to ensure you and your travel companions are safe. This is definitely a business everyone should continue to support during these difficult times. Thanks again to the staff & Tony who allowed us to come in for a private viewing! ????

The Mayan Cacao Company

The Mayan Cacao Company is a place to discover the origins of chocolate in the same land as its creators: The Mayans. This is not a museum, it is an interactive experience where you become an explorer of the history of the most popular food in the world. You will learn about the Mayan culture, their relationship with chocolate, when and how it was discovered, the applications and much more. All this magical trip will be through our different areas in the park, you can also see how chocolate is made from scratch, dare to try a Pre-Hispanic drink of Mayan priests and emperors. We will finish with the opportunity to taste our famous chocolate margaritas! And in our boutique you can buy an unimaginable variety of products made from cocoa: soaps, lotions, sauces, handmade chocolate bars and much more. We have 13 different flavors of 100% organic and gluten-free chocolate. Try them and take your favorite. Let the sensuality of chocolate catch your senses.

My sisters and I took the workshop tour with Angel. He was extremely knowledgeable about the history and significance of cacao in Mayan culture, the plants and pollinators that help make chocolate as we know it possible, and the process of making chocolate! Our tour included a sample of delicious mole sauce on fresh corn tortillas, grinding our very own chocolate, and making delicious chocolate margaritas. I definitely recommend taking the time to do the workshop. It's an all around great experience that stimulates all the senses.
