Cozumel's island museum is housed on two floors of a former hotel. Displays include those on natural history -- with exhibits on the island's origins, endangered species, topography, and coral-reef ecology -- as well as those on the pre-Columbian and colonial periods. The photos of the island's transformation over the 20th and 21st centuries are especially fascinating, as is the exhibit of a typical Mayan home. Guided tours are available.
