Cozumel in Mexico

kcl57 · September 13, 2010

Okay, with the wealth of cruise knowledge out there, can anyone give me a general feel for the weather in Cozemal, Progreso around mid November? I know I can look it up on weather sites, but those numbers don't really help! i know that weather is weather, and can change, and storms can happen, but I know that folks are here who've cruised for Thanksgiving!

I've read the advice about packing your swimsuit in your carryon, but would that even make sense in November? Someone told me there might be a problem with fog. I am so looking forward to NOT cooking a turkey dinner.

thanks in advance!!

Kathy the best part of Cozumel in fall/winter is it's not humid! We were just there and it was extremely hot. We'll be there in early November and by then the weather should be perfect.

We've been there in November and we are returning in November. It is georgous.

Fog?? Hardly. We snorkeled and expect to do the same this time as well.

Oh terrific! I am so looking forward to low humidity.

Can't promise low humidity. Actually, I really don't remember Cozumel being a port where we were miserable. If you go to the ruins, however, you will be miserable! Nothing to block the weather and/or bugs. That's why we always do something with "water".

The first time we were there we rented jeeps and drove around. There is no way that Jerry would have done the "open air" driving thing if it was hot, humid and sticky.

The next time we hooked up with some divers and we snorkeled while they dove. Again, a taxi ride (windows rolled down).

The last time, we walked around on our own. Again, not that unbearable.

We must like it, we're going back again in November

I'm in South Texas right now, and its really humid. So anything less will be a treat! I'm thinking it will probably be warmer than here in Nov, and maybe I can get in some beach time! I'm a certified diver, but my hubby's not, so it might just be snorkeling for the 2 of us! The driving around in a jeep sounds cool, tho.
