Phoning Home
Many visitors have found that their US-issued cell phones do work on the island; however, reception may be a bit spotty. Roaming charges will most likely be applied so check with your stateside issuer to find out what that rate would be when calling home from Cozumel.

You may also want to consider purchasing a Telmex phone card from any of the island's pharmacies. When used with the silver Telmex phones, located all over the island, it is often the best and cheapest way to call home.

The best place on the island to phone out of the country are at any of the numerous calling stations or internet cafes. Call worldwide at a reasonable rate. Fax and Internet services are likely available at your hotel. Be sure to ask about connection fees first.
