Top Places To Watch Football In Cozumel

There are many places in Cozumel where you can watch your favorite college and NFL football teams play. The island attracts millions of visitors, and thousands of people move to Cozumel to call it home, making the area a diverse sports bar scene. It’s easy to go to a bar or watch sports on TV here in Cozumel. Here are 8 great places to watch sports in Cozumel:

Hooters

Av. Rafael E. Melgar 599, Centro

Wings. Beer. Sports. You’re bound to find something that appeals to your taste if you come here. This national chain restaurant has over 30 flat screens and offers 16 different flavors of wings! Hooters is a perfect spot for watching the game and is conveniently located in Plaza Punta Langosta with a great variety of bar food. Go to your favorite team’s game and enjoy the never-ending party.

No Name Sports Bar Cozumel

Av. Rafael E. Melgar 600, Centro

If you like living in a tropical paradise with a beautiful beach, a great atmosphere, great food and drinks, lively conversation, and all your favorite TV games on six flat screens, then this is the spot for you! An easy-going bar where smokers may light up. The chips are a perfect pairing with their guacamole and Pico de Gallo.

Thirsty Cougar

Calle 3 Sur 317 entre Rafael E. Melgar y Av. 5, Centro

Here’s the recipe for a successful business: tasty entrees of coconut shrimp and shrimp ceviche. Order a strawberry margarita, draft beer or a Piña colada. The well-trained staff work hard, stay positive, and make this place wonderful. The cool service is a big plus, and you get the wall-size projection TV.

La Internacional Cervecería

Avenida Rafael E. Melgar 590, Centro

La Internacional Cervecería is a great place to go for a game or to catch up with old friends. They have over 100 craft beers to choose from, and if you’re looking for something a little different, they also have a wide variety of spirits. Plus, if you’re feeling lucky, you can try their own hand-crafted cocktails. Watch the game on big-screen TVs or snag a table outside where you’ll have your own personal projection TV to watch. If you’re a craft beer lover, this is the perfect location to be at.

Woody’s Bar & Grill Cozumel

Av Benito Juárez entre 5 calle y 10 calle, Centro

Woody’s is a great place to get a bite to eat or to enjoy a cold beverage. They have the best live music every night and many big-screen TVs for all the hottest sports events! They are in the square, only a block from the ferry pier, so it’s the perfect place to relax after a day of exploring the island. Whether you’re watching the game or getting up to dance the night away, Woody’s has got you covered.

Final Thoughts

If you’re looking for a place to watch the big game, there are a few more options. First, check out Wet Wendy’s. This restaurant has many TVs and is perfect for watching the game without having to stay inside. When you’re looking for a place with more TVs, try Señor Frog’s or El Coctelito.

If there is an important event like the Super Bowl, World Series, fight, or soccer match, many places will put up signs in front of their location several days in advance. If the event is live, the cost of watching it on PPV may vary by location, so check with the restaurant to enjoy the event. Be sure to check the location’s website for more information.

Check Out is 11am at your Cozumel Airbnb

Have you ever given much thought to what to do when check out is 11am at your Cozumel Airbnb?

This morning, you’re diving into the most amazing breakfast you’ve ever had at Cozumel’s most-recommended restaurant. You’ve just finished a couple of coffees, and you feel you could eat and drink the ocean itself. But when you look at the clock, you realize that it’s almost time to go. You glance at the Airbnb listing, hoping to find a note saying that check-out is at some other time, but no such luck.

If you’re staying at an Airbnb in Cozumel, you might not have thought about the checkout process. You just figured you could pick your checkout time just before your flight. But most Airbnbs in Cozumel have a checkout time at 11 am. This causes many of you to struggle when your Airbnb can not accommodate a late check-out because of the need of cleaning and preparing for the next guests.

There are options for you, though.

If you need your bags held for you, there is a new luggage storage place you can use near the square. They work MON-SAT (9 am to 6 pm) by appointment only. You book online and pay in person when you need your luggage held.  HERE

Your 2nd option is to check your bags early at the airport and then head across the street to Diego’s Tacos. While this is a local place, tourists using the airport come here. I recommend eating here if you have a departing flight just to kill time. Out of all the fish tacos on the island, these are the best.

The 3rd option is to use the new lounge at the airport by the gates. They provide complimentary snacks, drinks, comfy chairs, WiFi, and television for the low price of $35 USD for 2 people. It is a Priority Pass Lounge and is a very nice option. The Chase Sapphire Reserve card gives priority pass membership with guest pass included.

You can also book your Airbnb or Condo an extra day if you have a late flight. This costs a bit more, but you will enjoy having the extra time to relax.

5. You can rent a car for the departure day that is on site at the airport. Pack the night before, then get up early and load the car up. This allows you to enjoy a full day around the island and you drop off the car as you arrive at the airport.

We hope this information helps you with your travels – Stingray Villa

There are many ways to travel to Cozumel, whether you are going on a cruise or exploring the beautiful island for a few days. There is no crowd and the freedom of driving your own car while in Cozumel will make your stay one to remember.

The island is quite small, so transport options aren’t great and can be very expensive. Make the most of your vacation by avoiding the high-priced tours and making your own day trips. Follow these simple tips when renting a jeep in Cozumel.

Things to be aware of while renting Jeeps You need to understand that even in a Jeep if you leave the paved road surfaces you will void all of your insurance coverage for the Jeep. To take an off-road trip you need to be on a tour. There are Jeep, ATV, and buggy tours available if that is what you are looking for.

In 2020, Cozumel introduced a dedicated, two-way bicycle lane along the main coastal road. The primary avenue running through the downtown area is Melgar, which starts from the southern end of downtown and goes to the south hotel district, passing the International and Puerta Maya ports.

These bike lanes are for bicycles only. Motorized vehicles (including scooters) are not allowed in them. You also may not pass cars on the bike lanes.

It is only on this stretch of the island that we have this bike lane, but that is a very busy stretch. If you find yourself slowing down behind some vehicles in that lane, just wait it out and avoid being tempted to pass.

Please pay careful attention to where the cyclists are #1. Many people bike to work, but for those who don’t have to, it’s great to use bikes for recreation and competition in the tropics. Slow down to help everyone–including yourself! You should also look both ways when crossing the street near the bike lanes. Bicycles move fast and you do not hear them coming.

What happens if you get pulled over in Cozumel? First, don’t panic and stay calm. The police officers are not the bad guys. Even though they may look for a bribe from time to time, they’re still here to help the public.

The best thing you can do when the police officer speaks to you is to let them know if you know Spanish and how much.

The current procedure seems to be that an officer will ask for your driver’s license. He’ll then communicate what you did wrong.

That was easy. Here’s where it gets tricky: deciding whether what you did warrants a fine. If it does, the procedure is they will take your driver’s license to the local police station and you will pay there.

How do you tell whether the police officer is looking for a bribe? Just my feelings, but if the officer holds onto your driver’s license while talking to you and does not write anything on his ticket pad, he wants to talk to you about something off the books.

Parking on the Island Most places you want to stop outside of the city have very few parking restrictions and you can park on the beach as long as you respect the rules.

Inside the city, there are more rules. Follow all the posted signs, and also look at the curbs. DO NOT PARK in front of those areas that have no parking signs or where the curbs are painted yellow.
