El Mirador, Cozumel, Coastal viewpoint in Cozumel, Mexico.

The limestone cliffs form a natural stone arch overlooking the intense blue waters of the Caribbean Sea on the eastern coast of Cozumel.

The high position of this coastal formation served as a navigation point for Mayan traders who traveled along the shoreline in their wooden canoes.

Local vendors offer fresh coconuts and traditional Mexican snacks while sharing stories about the natural phenomena visible from this observation point.

The observation point requires sturdy shoes for walking on uneven terrain and remains open from sunrise to sunset without entrance fees.

Natural pools carved by waves in the limestone base collect marine life during high tide, creating small ecosystems visible from above.
