Cozumel International Airport is a smaller alternative ideal for dive-focused stays on the island, though it requires a connection. The new Tulum airport is gradually receiving more service and works well if your final destination is the southern Riviera Maya or Bacalar, but Cancún remains the most practical entry point for road trips across the region."
