Cozumel Electric Bike Tour & Snorkeling with Lunch

Summary

Punta Sur E-Bike Adventure with Local Flavors

Get ready to cruise through Cozumel’s Punta Sur Eco Beach Park on an electric bike with a local guide. Climb the old lighthouse for sweeping views, spot crocodiles at the lagoon, relax at a beach club with fresh guacamole and ceviche, then snorkel vibrant reefs before heading back — moments you’ll remember long after your tan fades.

What’s the experience like?

“You ever tried riding an e-bike in the middle of a nature reserve?” That’s how our guide, Jorge, greeted us as we fiddled with our helmets outside the shop in Cozumel. He had this way of making you feel like you were about to do something slightly mischievous — or maybe that was just me, nervous about looking ridiculous on an electric bike. Anyway, after a quick check-in and a laugh about my sunscreen streaks (I missed a spot on my nose), we piled into the van for Punta Sur Eco Beach Park. The drive was short but I remember the windows fogging up from the humidity — outside, everything looked impossibly green.

Once we got to Punta Sur, Jorge showed us how to use the bikes (honestly, it’s easier than it looks). The path wound past palms and these low-slung bushes that smelled sharp and earthy after last night’s rain. We stopped by the lagoon where he pointed out crocodiles sunning themselves — I squinted but only saw ripples until someone else gasped. There was this moment at the Faro Celerain lighthouse: climbing up those narrow stairs, legs wobbly from biking (or nerves?), then stepping out into wind and salt air so strong it made my eyes water. You could see all of Cozumel’s southern tip from up there — white sand curling around turquoise water. I didn’t say much; sometimes you just want to stand still for a second.

The last stretch took us to Anemona del Mar beach club where hammocks swung between palm trees and someone was already mixing guacamole behind the bar. I’m not sure if it was hunger or just being outside all day, but that ceviche tasted brighter than anything I’ve had back home. We swapped stories over lunch — Jorge told us about turtle nesting season (he mimed a baby turtle shuffling to sea; everyone laughed). Afterward came snorkeling: mask on, cool water everywhere, fish darting like little flashes of silver and blue. I lost track of time floating there.

I keep thinking about that quiet ride back along the sand, sunburned shoulders and salt drying on my skin. It wasn’t perfect — my Spanish is still terrible and I nearly dropped my phone in the lagoon — but honestly? That’s what made it feel real.
