Trucks and dive boats share the small pier at Puerto Morelos (MXPMS), where a car-and-cargo ferry departs several times a day for Cozumel, an island with no bridge and no major freight port of its own. Sitting inside the Puerto Morelos Reef National Park, one of Mexico's best-preserved coral systems, the port's footprint is deliberately limited, ruling out large-scale expansion. Besides vehicles and general goods bound for Cozumel, the dock occasionally handles construction materials and fuel supplying the Riviera Maya's hotel zone, though no verified throughput figures are published. There is no dedicated container terminal or deep-water berth, so oceangoing cargo vessels do not call here. International customs clearance for seafreight is effectively absent on site; shippers instead route through Puerto Progreso or Puerto Calica near Playa del Carmen. Road access runs via Federal Highway 307 toward Cancún and Playa del Carmen, with no rail connection. For anything beyond local resupply, Puerto Morelos functions as a service port rather than an international cargo gateway.
