I have not been to Cozumel nor to Cancun but am planning to take my son there for a graduation present next year. He's a non-diver at the present time, as well as most of his buddies, that may be joining us. Some of them have expressed an interest in learning to dive, but I think they are more interested in what or maybe I should say who is on the beaches, nightlife and other activities at this point. I wanna dive of course, but this trip isn't for me and want to be sure they have a good time. So the question I have is, which place would be better to take a group of 18&19 year olds?

Any info from all of you Cozumel/Cancun travellers is greatly appreciated :lmao:

You'd be happier in Cozumel, and they can find enough fun there.

However, for their focus, they'd probably prefer Cancun.

WG - I have the same problem - my son will be a senior when school starts and wanted to go to Mexico - he's a non-diver - he was born with heart disease - so not even a chance of diving. I am taking him on a cruise - more ports - less chance of him falling in love for too long!!!! :lmao: Your son would love Cancun - before I became a diver - I went there every summer for at least a week. Great beaches and places to snorkle. You can even take the ferry over to Coz for the day - kind of a rough ride - but you could see Coz too. LOTS and LOTS of young ladies for the young men to see!!! Dandy Don is right in my opinion too - you would enjoy Coz better - but he will LOVE Cancun. Very much a party town - Cozumel to me is much more laid back. Hope this helps some!

Not me. I'd rather be 34 than 18. (Ask me again when I get a little closer to the big 4-Oh)
