Our Favorite Excursion!! - So we have been on a lot of cruises, have done our share of excursions and this was our favorite. I can't say enough about the crew, Captain Carlos and Omar were top notch. They were knowledgeable, friendly and took great care of us. The boat was really nice and they played great music. We hit several snorkeling stops, seeing turtles, fish and reefs. At the end we stopped at a sandbar for fantastic food and drinks while the fish and sting rays were swimming around us. If you are looking for something to do for the day look no further, this was an absolute blast!!!

PERFECT DAY IN COZUMEL - From start to finish this was a great day in Cozumel!! Jorge and Diego were professional, fun and made sure we were safe. Snorkeling was great - we saw so many fish, starfish and sea turtles. The food & drink were icing on the cake. Seriously, best day of our entire weeklong trip!

Incredible Excursion - This tour was incredible! We booked it outside of our cruise offerings through Project Expedition direct and with Enrique. We made port at Punta Langosta and needed to get our own ride to Marina Caletas...we grabbed a taxi right there and the cost was $15 and took 15 minutes. Once we got to the marina, we boarded our boat with Manuel and Raul as our guides. It was just our family, and they were super attentive for us from the first minute. We left the marina and motored south for about 30-40 minutes to our first stop where we were told "they always see turtles" which admittedly, I wasn't all that confident in. Lo and behold, we jumped in, and I am not kidding almost kicked 2 sea turtles! We were RIGHT on them...all told we saw 3 turtles there, tons of fish, starfish, nurse sharks and lobsters. The water was a little rough (which they can't control) but Raul stayed right by us (my kids are 16 & 14) and Manuel kept the boat near enough to us that if we needed it, we could have been back on the boat real quick. After maybe 30 minutes, we were on the boat and onto the next spot which was the "starfish" farm. The water was like 15 feet deep and big beautiful starfish were everywhere...we were here for maybe 30 minutes as well. Lastly, we boated down to El Cielo, a beautiful sandbar area in like 3 feet of water where we could just hang out in the water. The highlight for me was all the stingrays the were circling us the entire time...must have been a dozen of them from small (1 foot wing span) to huge (6 foot wing span). While we were doing that, they made us lunch of fruit and ceviche which was phenomenal. At about 1 we got back in the boat to head back to the Marina where Enrique met us to take us back to Punta Langosta where we needed to get back on the boat. Back on boat time was 4:30 so we had plenty of time to grab food, shop and walk around before getting on the boat. This tour was amazing, and in my opinion a must do. The communication before booking was great as was it the day of as we arrived to port a little late.

Great experience - We did a private snorkeling trip with Carlos and Omar. They were great. Although it was windy, visibility was still decent. We did one longer snorkel and 2 shorter ones to see turtles and starfish. Then went to a sandbar/party area where they served us lunch. Fresh mahi spread, made on the spot guacamole, chips and fruit. Food was abundant and delicious. Various drinks, alcoholic and not, were also included. We enjoyed not being packed on a boat with tons of other people and having the chance to chat with Carlos and Omar a little about life on Cozumel.

Nothing but amazing!! - Cannot say enough great things about this experience. Boat was beautiful. Our crew was awesome. We didn’t want for a thing the entire trip. Spent time at two different reefs snorkeling and then spent the rest of the time anchored in the turquoise waters of El Celio. Good was excellent. And we always had a cold drink in our hands. We decided to stay an extra week and will be booking again.

Heavenly trip (pun intended) - We were really happy we did this trip. The snorkeling was fantastic, and the crew of La Cosita (Manuel, Omar, and the captain whose name I'm sadly forgetting) did a great job. We also appreciate the fact that we were able to get into El Cielo, since it's been rough lately, but fortunately it was open the day we went.
