What To Expect

We’ll visit some of the most amazing reef locations on the island of Cozumel, including a green turtle sanctuary where we can snorkel alongside peacefully in their natural habitat. We also visit ‘El Cielo’ (‘Heaven’) - an incredible natural starfish sanctuary, filled with many bright red & orange starfish on pristine white sands. Towards the end of the tour, we’ll move on to Cielito, or ‘Little Heaven’. This is a natural sandbank in crystal clear water, where we can simply relax and enjoy freshly prepared snacks and drinks before cruising back to port with the sunset. Please arrive at least 30 minutes before your sailing time. All times shown are for Cozumel’s local timezone, which may differ to your cruise ship timezone. Check before booking. Please do not apply sunscreen immediately before or during the tour; 'reef safe' or 'coral safe' sunscreens only minimise damage and are not proven to be completely harmless to aquatic life. Many sunscreens also create slippery surfaces which can pose a hazard on our boats. We instead recommend using a long sleeve rash vest & hat.

  • Great trip!

    We went on the 12 noon tour on 12/2825 with jols (or “Hoyle?” Rhymed with “according to “Hoyle”). These are the hardest workings guys you will ever meet! Totally desecrated to getting u to the reef at all costs . We enjoyed the trip and particularly the ceviche beach break at the end. There were also many sting ray at the last stop. Friendly stingray ray. It’s a good trip

  • Not Quite the 4-Hour Experience Advertised

    This tour was advertised as **4 hours**, but most of that time was taken up by pickups, drop-offs, and an extremely long snack stop at the end (over 90 minutes). Very little time was spent snorkeling, particularly at the best locations. The group was very large, making it hard to snorkel comfortably or enjoy the experience. Because the actual snorkeling time was so limited, it felt rushed and underwhelming. We also missed a ferry we had planned to catch, as we expected the tour to actually last four hours. The description was misleading, and the overall experience did not offer good value for the time spent.

  • I really liked it.

    Second time with this tour, I had to come back for more, and on Christmas Day! It was a beautiful day for a snorkel adventure with Frank and Gio, we saw many fish, stingrays, a large turtle and even a nurse shark! At the last stop enjoyed fresh snacks and beverages before a ride back to the dock listening to Spanish music. A lovely day, highly recommend.

  • I loved it but it had some cons

    The group was 16 people big, Gio really did a good job at giving us a save feeling, there was a woman on board who really thought she didnt need a life jacket. He coped with that well. The only negative thing is that snorkeling in a group means a lot of arms and legs together. That, and the fact that Gio had the fish food, made it less easy to spot a fish myself

    It was really well organised, a nice range of activities, helpful crew and lunch on a sandbar with rays swimming around the legs was amazing

  • Very good snorkelling excursion

    Gio was our guide and Frank our captain. We stopped in 4 places and have seen a turtle, a shark and lots of other fish, among them some beautiful black fish. The ceviche was made by the captain and it was excellent. The reason I did not give 5 stars is that I found the boat trip very rough and we did it at high speed.

  • Beautiful nature

    I loved seeing the different reefs and snorkeling. The snacks and drinks were great. My only recommendation would be to find out who was interested in photos before the trip and concentrate on them. I was not interested in photos, so trying to get my attention for them was simply annoying.
