Amazing Snorkeling Experience with Islafuntours.com - My snorkeling tour to the Underwater Museum (MUSA) in Isla Mujeres was an absolute dream come true! From start to finish, the experience was seamless and truly unforgettable. Our guide, Filipe, was incredibly knowledgeable and made sure everyone felt comfortable and safe in the water, regardless of their snorkeling experience.
Felipe was an incredible diver himself! He free-dove 30 ft down to the sculptures to get pictures up close.
Seeing the submerged sculptures was a surreal and breathtaking experience. It's not just a collection of art; it's a living, growing reef, teeming with vibrant fish and marine life. We were lucky enough to see a sea turtle! The clarity of the water was incredible. I was worried we would not have good visibility, but you could see everything perfectly. It felt like exploring an art exhibition floating above on the ceiling of a museum – but one that's actively contributing to the ocean's ecosystem!
The tour itself was well-organized, with plenty of time to explore MUSA before moving on to another fantastic snorkeling spot. The ceviche lunch that was served after the tour was delicious! We saw so many colorful fish, and the beauty of the Caribbean Sea around Isla Mujeres is simply unparalleled.
If you're looking for a unique, awe-inspiring, and environmentally conscious adventure, DO NOT miss this tour. It's a truly magical experience that I would recommend to anyone visiting Isla Mujeres. Five stars are not enough – it deserves ten!

Fun snorting trip with adult couples - We took this tour while on vacation to Isla Mujeres. We selected this snorkeling excursion because it was a small group (max 12 people) and short duration (4 hours).
The meeting spot in front of Senior Frogs had a lot of guides meeting their groups so I can see how it could get confusing but Leo our guide was able to find us quickly when we were at the meeting spot. He directed us to a waiting area in the harbor while we waited for the rest of our group. There is a 7/11 across the street to bring your own drinks and they have a cooler aboard for use. There’s also a bar next door for drinks while you’re waiting.
The excursion left promptly and went to 3 sites. The lighthouse reef, the underwater museum and another reef further out into the bay. The guide Leo made sure everyone had gear that was well fitted and kept everyone safe in the water. He also pointed out the fish we were seeing and explained the statues and monuments in English and Spanish.
We ended the day at Playa Tiburon with a plated lunch with the group at a beach club. We were able to purchase souvenirs here. We didn’t return to the starting area with the group because Playa Tiburon was next door to our hotel.

lovely - A safe and comfortable way to access the ocean reefs. We saw beautiful schools of fish, a starfish, and a sting ray. The temperature can be cool so take a sweater and hat! And no sunscreen because of the reefs, so watch your exposed skin while snorkling - i sunburned my bottom, so shorts would have helped.

Best Part of Isla Mujeres Trip! - My partner and I enjoyed a lovely experience on this trip! Our tour guide was communicative about what to expect and was incredibly helpful in navigating stronger currents, especially given how strong a swimmer he is. Definitely recommend this tour for your first time snorkeling experience!

Excellent experience for day trip to Isla Mujeres from Cancun! - Had an excellent time with Lalo and Filipe! We saw so many beautiful fish and coral while receiving expert guidance the whole time. On top of that, we got to try some truly amazing ceviche. Safety was prioritized and even as only an average swimmer I was able to enjoy my time out in the ocean :). My partner and I took a day trip from Cancun to Isla Mujeres ourself on the Ultramar ferry and we’re looking for something fun to do while we were there — I strongly recommend this for anyone!

Fantastic snorkel tour with yummy lunch! - Amazing tour! We went to three different spots to snorkel and saw so many fish, 2 sting rays and a turtle. The guide was kind and knowledgeable. The food on our little stop at the beach was delicious and the drinks were good too (extra cost for drinks). Then you get to hang out and relax a bit in a beautiful spot before heading back. Also I had accidentally booked the wrong day but they were able to accommodate us and put us with another group anyway which was so nice! A great company and I’d highly recommend to anyone!

Fun and affordable, but not for first timers - The snorkeling tour was fun and affordable. For people familiar with snorkeling this is fantastic. The tour goes fast and you’re taken in a small boat out to three locations, where you hop off and explore for about 20 min (with a guide) before retuning to land for some delicious fish and rice at Playa Tiburon. This may not be for first timers though. There is very little instruction/ step by step guidance, it’s very fast paced, loud, and choppy on the water (not for those prone to sea sickness!) and you do have to launch yourself into the water off the side of the boat which when grappling with new equipment is a lot to manage. The snorkels themselves are pretty basic, the tubes don’t have a valve or splash guard to keep water out. The currents as well are strong in some places. I was pushed into some rocks and banged my knee, not so bad just a stronger current than expected. Overall it was a great tour, just keep in mind it may best for those who have snorkeled at least a handful of times.

A Good Value Snorkeling Trip on Isla Mujeres - This was a good snorkeling tour. It was less of a party atmosphere (no loud music, no free drinks) and cheaper than another tour I went on at Cozumel. Our guide Roger was knowledgeable and told us about different types of fish. The driver was nice as well. Lunch was decent - it's on shore and you have the option to buy drinks or dessert if you want. There were a lot of fish at the first site, but the variety of wildlife and locations is not as good as options on Cozumel.
