We went early and ended up as a private tour. Alexandro was our capitan and guide. He is very knowledgeable and pointed out many things we might have missed. The reef is beautiful and he took us to some great areas. Also, we had to change our reservation time and they were very accommodating. Highly recommended short tour 👍

Great tour guide

Travis_B, Mar 2024

Great tour guide! we had an awesome time and saw some big fish! It is really nice to be able to still get an affordable tour that is just snorkeling as we did not want the basic lunch that comes with most tours.

Good moment.. but not exceptional

Remi_S, Mar 2024

Nice snorkeling moment, crystal clear water, lot of colorful little fishes, impressive reef and a very nice guide ! Shame we did not see any turtles, rays, eels, lobster… or any other surprising animals…

Terrible service, wouldn’t recommend

Manvis_X, Mar 2024

Absolutely terrible service would not recommend this to anyone. Once you book, rest assured that you will never get any communication from them. Both their posted office number and email are not registered and they don’t respond to messages. I had booked another snorkeling tour in the morning which was cancelled due to strong wind so I reached out to this tour (which I had booked for in the afternoon at 4pm) to make sure it wasn’t also cancelled. Reached out every hour since 11am and it was complete silence. Ended up not going without their confirmation because it would’ve been an expensive Uber to go and they are unwilling to provide a refund, even though I tried to contact them every way possible for confirmation of the tour HOURS before it happened. Terrible customer service. Would highly highly recommend against it

Fun Experience for Intermediate Snorkelers

Justin_C, Mar 2024

We saw a giant barracuda that was resting on a rock. Experienced snorkelers(especially those comfortable in the water will enjoy this greatly)

Saw All the Things on the vibrant reef.

John_S, Mar 2024

We were booked for a Tuesday snorkel, they were flexible about us changing time slots from the 8 to the 10. The weather was windy, red flag on the reef, so they had to cancel, we did it the following day and managed to have a private tour just me and my father on his 80th, it was pretty awesome. Plenty of people on the reef today, but the guides kept us separated so you really were uninterrupted. We saw two kinds of sea rays, a turtle, hundreds of vibrantly colored fish, a turtle, a cormorant, lots of coral sprouts. Protect the reef, don't wear sunblock or bug spray. Beautiful experience, highly recommended.

WE HAD A BLAST!

Tekeya_G, Mar 2024

We had an amaaaaazing time! Our guide was great!… the reef, coral, and fish were beautiful! And we even saw a Reef Shark! It was HUGE! We worked up quite an appetite so we ate at the local spot on site, and the Food was the best we had in Cancun our entire trip!! Word of wisdom::: Be sure you are in decent physical conditioning! You will be tired when you leave! ☺️

Great snorkeling, questionable staff

StephanieWoronko, Feb 2024

The snorkeling was incredible and I highly recommend. However, after the tour I asked a member of the staff (Antonio) to rent a snorkel, and he told me to rest because he had a "special surprise" for me. After my puzzled look, he complimented my body and tried to kiss me. This behavior was unwanted, unprovoked, and unacceptable, and I have not found proper channels to report it.

Snorkeling

Barb_D, Feb 2024

Amazing snorkeling off the coast of Beautiful Puerto Morelos. Had a great time and saw a large variety of different tropical fish

Sweet morning share

Tara_H, Feb 2024

Lovely early morning trip with our guide Mario who very much offered his love of the marine life and reef. Very grateful.

Beautiful snorkeling, professional service, tons of fun. Also, a great deal!

David_A, Jan 2024

Beautiful snorkeling, professional service, tons of fun. Also, a great deal! The town of Puerto Morelos is also lovely. If I had seen it before booking an Airbnb in Playa del Carmen, I would have booked in Puerto Morelos instead.

Wonderful daytrip

Freya_C, Dec 2023

We had a great time snorkeling with Alejandro. It was an ideal experience to see the mesoamerican reef. The corals and fish were quite impressive and big thanks for pulling us in the tide!

Incredible!

Amber_H, Dec 2023

Alejandro was an incredible guide. So informative and helpful, he’s someone that anyone can really enjoy a tour from. Our most memorable parts were all the barracuda and seeing the beautiful reef.

Worth every penny

Joshua_v, Oct 2023

What a great experience we had. We had the best time with Alejandro who took us to some amazing snorkeling spots. The price was the best I had found and he earned every dollar. His English was perfect and the experience was very personal. Very safe and laid back, good for any age!

Exceptional

Marisol_M, Oct 2023

Alejandro was great, professional, and educated on the coral reefs. We enjoyed our time snorkeling and we got to see some pretty cool reefs! We arrived at our meeting point, got our gear, making sure everything fit accurately before we left, made a short 2 min walk to the boat, took a short ride and spent around 45 mins at each place. We saw some type of sting ray and so many fish. Alejandro shared his knowledge on the coral reefs and we learned something new! Small group. 5 stars for sure.

Amazing snorkeling!

Shawn_H, Sep 2023

Amazing tour for much cheaper than the competitors

Jon_B, Aug 2023

Our guide was Alejando. He spoke perfect English and was super nice. He went out of his way to accommodate my pregnant wife and snorkeled with us showing us around the coral reefs in the area. We saw tons of fish and other ocean life. Would definitely book another trip with him.

Excellent activity

Jai_M, Jul 2023

Excellent host and we saw many sea animals. We saw a sting ray, colorful fish and beautiful coral 🪸

Response from Host, Aug 2023

Small group and relaxed experience

Alicia_B, Jun 2023

Excellent experience with a very nice and knowledgeable guide. Short time commitment. Plenty to see in a natural environment. Would recommend!

Best snorkel ever!

Stephanie_F, Feb 2023

Was just us two and the guide, he was professional, friendly, and very knowledgeable. Would recommend this to everyone.

Snorkelling in Puerto Morelos

Billie_T, Jan 2023

Wow! Such an amazing experience! Alejandro was a great captain and his partner was a great guide! Very clean and easy to find right on the beach in Puerto Morelos. Works amazing with people who have mobility issues (my mom has a bad knee) and they were wonderful to her! There was also 4 of us on the whole trip. Not a mass of people. Was perfect! Highly recommend! 11/10!
