About this audio guide
This guide to Chen Rio, a beach on the wild eastern shore of Cozumel across the water from Playa del Carmen, is about play: how a coast too rough for swimming ended up with one spot where island families spend their Sundays. It follows the rock, the water and the people who come to use it, from snorkellers to kayakers to the kitchens grilling the day's catch. Best heard standing on the sand facing the rocky rim.
