Ancient Mayan Ruins

Cozumel's archaeological landscape centers on San Gervasio, a major pre-Columbian pilgrimage site dedicated to the goddess Ixchel. The island's ruins include Castillo Real, which served as a coastal watchtower, and the small inland site of El Cedral. In the south, the Punta Sur region features unique structures like El Caracol, designed to whistle as a warning for approaching hurricanes. These sites illustrate the island's historical importance as a strategic maritime hub and religious center for the Maya civilization.
