As a scenery addition for FSX, VFR Cozumel X covers the island of Cozumel, Mexico, and its surrounding waters. Cozumel is one of the most popular holiday destinations worldwide – its warm waters; spectacular shores and rich history means the island has a lot to offer to all tourists. Cozumel is also a world-famous dive site.
