This was a fantastic experience- we saw tons of fish swimming right by your face- including puffer fish and stingrays all close enough to touch. The starfish were beautiful yellow and plentiful. Our guide, Miguel, was very friendly too and made delicious fresh guacamole and ceviche. Finish your day with a local Mexican beer on board. Great, small group experience!

Fun experience aboard La Perla, captained by Abraham and guided by Miguel. Superb spots to snorkel in Palancar and Columbia and finish in Heaven with lunch of ceviche and guacamole. Highly recommended. Definitely one of our best tours of Cozumel.

We took a taxi from the cruise terminal ($18 for up to 4 ppl) to the beach club for the tour. Boat holds 14 people & 2 staff; our trip had 12...it was tight. Three AWESOME stops. We could not ask for a better snorkeling experience. Oscar & Juan were friendly & competent. Food was great, drinks were cold. Plenty of time at the stops & plenty of wildlife! 3 nurse sharks, 1 turtle, 20 stingrays (even swimming thru our legs) plus a bunch of nice reef fish! Excellent value.

This tour is not ideal for cruise travelers. They do not provide pick-up from the port, and I had to pay $18 for a taxi to get to the beach club. Also, the meeting time is based on local time, which is one hour earlier than my ship’s time. Because of this, I arrived late. If you are traveling from a cruise, please double-check the time difference in advance. That said, the sea is really beautiful, and the water is very clear and clean.

$18 for taxi from port. Loaded boat on time. Headed to first stop and snorkeled looking at coral, beautiful fish etc. Went to second spot saw huge starfish. 3rd spot was not snorkeling but we got out of boat and hung out with sting rays and fish. Crew made/served delicious ceviche, fruit, guacamole and chips. Headed back to beach. Great experience. 3+ hours.

My husband and I booked this for us and our 4 kids 18, 14, 11 and 4. I brought a full face mask snorkel for my 4 year old since I figured they only had the two piece kind. As soon as we got off carnival ship 9am we hurried to grab a taxi there is a lot it was around $40 and 20mins ride to San Francisco beach club. The staff were great!!! Everyone was very helpful the stops to snorkel were AMAZING!! The tour guy stayed with us in water and one on boat my youngest wanted to go back on boat after a few minutes and they help us back on. So many gorgeous fish and the last spot was breathtaking with stingrays swimming next to us. The two guides had all the fixings for fresh handmade ceviche, cut everything right on boat gave everyone plates and yummm!!! Soda and waters. Book with this place for sure!!!! Loved it and highly recommend! When we got back to starting point we ate lunch at beach club and did some shopping. Perfect day!!!
