Colt45 Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 I don't know if you can get there while in Cozumel, but there is an LCDH listed in Playa del Carmen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like it will be an adventure to get to Playa Del Carmen, so nothing on the Island of Cozumel itself that is legit huh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tampa1257 Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 Remember, Do NOT buy any Cuban Cigars in Mexico unless you buy them at an LCDH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samb Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 Would be nice to know, Im cruising there in April. If anything, you could browse through the shops and check out the fakes, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudechuck Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 I recall there is a ferry that goes back and forth between Cozumel and Playa del Carmen, although I never took it myself. I Googled and it looks like it's $20 round trip and 45 minutes each way. Have a great time both of you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cletus Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 Sorry to have caught this thread so late. I just returned from Playa del Carmen three weeks ago. You can take a ferry from Cozumel to PDC (45 minutes) and walk to the LCdH in about 30 minutes. The LCdH in PDC is tiny. The "walk-in" humidor is similar to a sliding door closet and can only fit two people at a time. The humidifier was a block of florist's foam in a bucket of water. The prices were certainly on the high side. I wanted to buy a Siglo IV as a gift for a friend and they were selling for $320 MX, about $25 US. I'm sure bartering was a possibility but the sticks were on the fugly side so I passed. And the selection was very light with the shelves only 1/2 full with some of the boxes containg less than 10 sticks. I'd say go to PDC and the LCdH if you've nothing better to do while docked in Cozumel. PDC is a great place to shop, eat, and people watch. I would recommend not making the trip just for the LCdH. Let me know if you have any more questions. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
