Our writers
Who writes this
Everything published about Cozumel on this site carries a name. Here is who those names belong to, what each of them covers, and how to read everything they have written.
Ana Lucía Ferrer
Senior Editor
Beat: Beach Clubs, Best Time to Visit, Cruise Excursions
Ana Lucía has edited Mexican Caribbean travel coverage for eleven years and runs the practical pages on this site: taxi zone fares, park admissions, ferry schedules and what a cruise day can realistically hold. She checks a tariff board or a port notice before she checks anyone's marketing, and she writes the prices as bands because they move.

Diego Marín
Dive & Water Editor
Beat: Snorkeling, Best Time to Visit, Scuba Diving
Diego worked as a divemaster on Cozumel boats before he wrote about them, and has the current on Santa Rosa mapped in his head by month. He covers diving, snorkelling, the marine park rules and the fishing fleet, and he will tell you plainly when a site is wrong for your certification or when the wind means nothing is sailing.

Sofía Ruelas
Culture & Island Life Editor
Beat: Things to Do, Attractions, East Side Beaches
Sofía writes about the island that exists after the ships leave: San Gervasio and the Ixchel pilgrimage, Carnaval, the Día de Muertos altars, and the kitchens four blocks inland from the malecón. She reports in Spanish first, names the people and businesses she writes about, and treats the Maya sites as heritage rather than scenery.

These are our own staff bylines. We do not publish guest posts, we do not accept sponsored articles under a staff name, and no page here is signed by someone who did not write it. Portraits are deliberately absent: attaching a stock photograph of a real person to an editorial byline would misrepresent them, so you get initials instead.
