El Cedral is
the oldest Mayan Ruins on Cozumel Island,
dating back to 800 A.D. The Mayan village
was once the capital of Cozumel, and the largest
community on the island. It was discovered
by Spanish Conquistadors in 1518, who tore down
much of the Mayan temple, and then during World
War II, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
destroyed more of it to make way for the
island's first airport. Today, there is
not much of this once significant Mayan temple
remaining, but you can see a portion of it, and
with the help of one of our knowledgeable
guides, you can picture the community as it once
existed - as the hub of Mayan life in Cozumel.
