Been There – Cozumel
Starbucks Been There – Cozumel is a mug for an island and municipality in the Caribbean Sea off the coast of Mexico’s Yucatán Peninsula. It is a well known touristic destination with multiple resorts, restaurants, scuba diving and snorkeling facilities.
It is also a popular port for cruize ships, one of those we can see on the front of the mug.
Tumba del Caracol at Punta Sur (can be seen on the front as well) was Mayan temple built during the Post Classic period (950 – 1539 AD). It is located on the road to the Celarain Lighthouse within Punta Sur Park and is dedicated to Ix Chel who was the goddess for childbirth, fertility, medicine, and weaving.
San Gervasio is another interesting archaeological site of the pre-Columbian Maya civilization which once was a hub of worship of Ix Chel.
The back of the mug is fully dedicated to the coral reefs and marine life in Arrecifes de Cozumel National Park. This is a dream come true for scuba divers!
