Hi Christina,
Thank you for reading my Cozumel article. Yes, it’s definitely an option to ask the taxi driver to wait but it would depend on how long you plan to spend on the “other side”. I’ve never had a problem getting a taxi for the return from say, Coconuts for example. But you must allow enough time in case there’s a delay in a taxi getting to where you are for the day. Sometimes the restaurant/bar can call a taxi, too. Negotiate with your taxi driver on the way over and you could try to agree on a pick-up time for your return. That frees the taxi driver from picking up more passengers rather than charging you a higher price for just waiting around.

I hope this is helpful. Enjoy your time in Cozumel! It’s a wonderful place to spend a day (or longer!).

Thanks for the recommendation, Joe. I will definitely go there on my next visit. And thanks for taking the time to read the article and leave a helpful comment.

Thanks very much, Wilma! Your suggestion is appreciated. Thanks for reading the article, too.
