Very fun guide (Shout out to Christian) - We weren't able to see much that day because water was so murky, but the Crew was so fun and friendly! Took great care of us!

Dive here… - Awesome excursion! Very friendly, very safe, and brought delicious food for our diving. They worked hard to give us the best experience possible. We’re experienced snorkelers, but Joe was never far away with a floating ring just in case. They know the local topography and really went all out for us. This is good for beginners and advanced snorkelers, lots to see and a good crew. I’ll be back next time we’re in Costa Maya

Snorkeling peacefully - Brie and David were extremely caring and accommodating. I have a tendency to get motion sickness. Brie made sure that I was ok and was checking on me the whole time. I was able to see the beautiful reef, different types of fish, spotted stingray, and a turtle. Guacamole was very tasty 😋. Would recommend this activity and would do it again if I am back in Costa Maya. Thank you!

An amazing day with a fantastic team x - We had such a fantastic experience and cannot thank the team enough for their encouragement and reassurance to young nervous snorkellers. Bri lead our excursion and we cannotbthank her enough my daughter was very nervous and didn't manage to Snorkel but Bri was absolutely wonderful with her and encouraged her into the water for a short time. The snorkelling was a great experience for my son and I, stopping in a number of areas and viewing reef points, providing amazing memories we can hold forever. Thank you so much x

Great day of snorkeling! - Fun day snorkeling! We took a taxi from the port and it was easy to find. Huge benefit to not booking through the cruise ship, we had the small boat to ourselves. Our guide was in the water with us the whole time trying to find turtles, or anything else for us to see. The drinks and guacamole tasted great after being in the water. It’s a great family run company that I would recommend to anyone!

Book this excursion!! - We the best experience with the whole Le Leyenda team. My family and I have booked previous excursions through the cruise company and opted not to do that this go around. I worked with Dianne, at Viator, to plan all the excursions at each port. My husband and I and our 3 kids (13,12,11) visited 3 different places on the MesoAmerican reef. We were able to swim with 3 dolphins! This was a first snorkeling experience for our family and couldn’t have asked for a more incredible experience!

Good family fun! - Reef was beautiful, lotta marine life. Water was pretty cloudy (hard to beat Cozumel), but still well worth it. Second snorkel site much better than the first. Crew was friendly.

Really Nice Family Operation - Wonderful family operating the boat, good meet-up instructions. They were very attentive to my sister in assisting her with learning to snorkel. The family with young children on our boat (total of 6 on the boat) had a great first snorkeling experience. Note the reefs are suffering bleaching, and the fish are minimal. Might have chosen another activity if I had realized how advanced it has become.
