Cozumel Municipality, Caribbean municipality in Quintana Roo, Mexico.

Cozumel Municipality encompasses an island territory of 647 square kilometers, making it Mexico's largest Caribbean island with San Miguel as its principal city.

The municipality territory served as a sacred site for the Maya Moon Goddess Ixchel, with archaeological findings indicating human presence since the first millennium.

The Festival of Santa Cruz and El Cedral Fair occur annually in late April, bringing together residents to celebrate local traditions through music and ceremonies.

Ferry services connect the municipal area to mainland destinations like Playa del Carmen, while an international airport provides direct access for international travelers.

The municipality contains numerous cenotes, natural sinkholes filled with fresh water, and houses endemic species including the Cozumel emerald and splendid toadfish.
