Cozumel Public Safety Department Ready for Semana Santa/Easter Week
Next week is the Catholic holiday of Easter, or as it is called in Spanish, “Semana Santa.” It’s often considered to be the busiest week of the year for national travel, since schools and many offices will be closed throughout the country. Entire families visit relatives, friends or just come to enjoy Cozumel’s beaches, watersports and cuisine. Cozumel municipal officials have been hard at work ensuring that public safety departments, such as police and lifeguards, are prepared for the additional crowds that will arrive to the island. Cozumel’s Director of Public Safety, has announced that additional contingency plans have been put in place during the holiday time so that beachgoers can enjoy their visit in the safest manner possible. Last year “Operation Semana Santa” was deemed a total success, with lifeguards rescuing 7 swimmers without a single fatality.
