Cozumel- Mexican island in the Caribbean Sea. I have been there. You would hate it now Mick. It's completely overridden with high rise hotels and its only use to me is that the flights there from here are super cheap and there's a ferry that takes one to the Yucatan peninsula.

Shame about Cozumel. We went there in the '80's as a stop on a Caribbean Cruise. Had great fun in a bar with some of the crew from the ship. Certainly no high rise hotels.
