Lunch with a side of snorkel gear? Yes, please. 🌊 @tortugasbeachclubcozumel in Cozumel is the kind of stop where you show up for food and somehow end up on a paddleboard an hour later... and honestly, no complaints.
The day pass runs about $22–$25 and comes loaded:
✨ Lounge chairs + restrooms/showers ✨ Snorkel gear, kayaks & paddleboards ✨ Inflatable water park ✨ WiFi & parking ✨ Fresh guacamole nearby (non-negotiable)
The water is clear like, actually stop-and-stare clear and perfect for snorkeling right off the shore. Fair warning though: this isn’t your lay-flat-and-do-nothing beach. It’s an active stop, and if that’s not your vibe, it might not be your spot.
But if snorkeling is the whole point of your Cozumel day? You can also book a guided tour ahead of time, way more structured and worth it if you want to make the most of the water. 🤿

If you’re flying into or out of South Florida, chances are you’ll pass through Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL).✈️
• Only 10 min from the beach & cruise port — perfect location!
• 4 color-coded terminals — Yellow, Red, Purple & Green
• Gate C tip: water bottle fillers are UPSTAIRS, not at the gate level
• Arrive 2 hrs early for domestic, 3 hrs for international flights
• Food options include Shake Shack, Starbucks & more — eat AFTER security
• Uber/Lyft pickup is easy & organized — but wait 10-15 min if surge pricing is high
• Rental car center is near Terminal 1 with all major companies available
• Cruising? FLL is basically next door to Port Everglades — super convenient!
My Fort Lauderdale Airport guide covers what to expect before you fly, from terminal layout to transportation and food options.

Is one day in Fort Lauderdale enough?🤔
Yes. Between the bakeries, murals, shops, canals, and beach access, one day in Fort Lauderdale is plenty of time to see a lot especially if you focus your time around Las Olas Boulevard.
You can start the morning with coffee and pastries, walk past murals and shops, see the canals, spend time at the beach, and still have room for gelato and a giant Italian sandwich.
If you’re looking for an authentic Italian bakery in Fort Lauderdale, Pan’E Dolci Bakery Fort Lauderdale is absolutely worth a stop. This café-style bakery is known for its Italian pastries, desserts, coffee, and massive savory sandwiches. The display cases are filled with cannolis, cookies, croissants, and breads, and they even have 22 flavors of homemade gelato.
Everything looks so good that it’s honestly hard to decide what to order.
