Must try with the family - Only con, I wish they supplied fins for the snorkeling but the life vest and face goggles were fine. Captain Pedro, Israel and Alex were great tour guides, the meal was delicious, and they were super friendly with offering drinks and more snacks. My family of 6 really enjoyed the waters. The youngest was 8 and she did fine. We loved seeing the sea life. We saw a sea turtle, star fish, sting rays and various fish. The sandbar was the greatest!

Cozumel snorkeling - We had a great afternoon snorkeling. The boat was a catamaran and stopped at three different points to see fish and the reefs. After we stopped at a beach for ceviche and drinks. Alex, Pedro and Israel were all super accommodating and made for a great experience. Highly recommend.

Party boat - We thought this tour sounded great, but unfortunately it didn’t live up to expectations. The 4 hour catamaran trip was actually only 3 hours. The snorkeling was fun, you weren’t in the water for very long and were constantly being shouted at to keep together. The boat plays really loud music and there is a large emphasis on drinking - which is great if you’re into that, but we aren’t. It was one hour of snorkeling, one hour of travelling and one hour of trying to drink as much as possible. Definitely not the relaxing boat trip we had pictured. We requested a refund due to the length of the trip being an hour less than advertised but was declined.
