Have you ever snorkeled the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef? Now that’s something to tell all your friends. Well, get ready, this amazing snorkel tour with knock your socks off!

The tour departs from the marina in Puerto Aventuras and heads north for about an hour to our first stop, a semi-sheltered reef area called In-Ha Reef. At In-Ha, you can swim in the calm, crystal clear ocean water at one of the greatest spots to snorkel in the Riviera Maya and part of the second largest barrier reef system in the world, yep, the Mesoamerican or Grand Mayan Reef System. The snorkeling is fantastic here as you'll get to swim with sea turtles, colorful tropical fish, and a variety of other reef and sea life.

While you’re enjoying the water, which you can hop in and out at any time, your onboard crew is always available for you. They will serve snacks, cocktails and refreshments. We’ll spend a good amount of time snorkeling and swimming here but if you prefer not to go in the water, that's ok too! You can just relax onboard the yacht, sunbathing or enjoying a cocktail, the views and some snacks.

Once everyone’s back on board, we’ll head to our second stop, La Bocana. Here is where many choose to enjoy their ceviche lunch and open bar. You can do so in the water if you'd like. It's really shallow and clear. La Bocana is kind of like our finale “let loose and enjoy" stop. We’ll get your favorite tunes playing so you can enjoy this beautiful and unforgettable moment with your group from the sea.

Another fun fact is that we also offer troll fishing on this tour. Anything you catch along the way can be prepared on board for you with our secret sauce!

This 5-hour tour is a real treat and a luxurious way to see the Riviera Maya coastline. It's great tour for a group of friends celebrating or for any special occasion! It’s one of the best ways to experience paradise!

Frequently Asked Questions

Here are some of the most common questions we get asked when clients book our tours.
If you have a question or concern that is not answered here, please contact us directly.

What happens to my deposit if the tour gets cancelled.

If the cancellation is due to the weather or our fault in any way we will refund you your deposit 100%.
If you decide to cancel the tour you have booked with us please see our cancellation policy here.

What happens if the weather is bad?

The weather here in the Caribbean changes a lot and often! So even if you look at the weather forecast and see cloudy, windy
or not the greatest weather, do NOT despair!

Here is why:
1) First of all most weather forecasters get the weather wrong here.
We're boating experts and we always keep an eye on the up-to-the-minute weather using many sources.
If anybody knows how a tour will turn out, it is us! We will let you know if the weather's too bad to go out.

2) Perhaps at your resort, 20 min. away, it's raining or cloudy but here in Puerto Aventuras Marina it is sunny.
The weather is very local here.

3) On the ocean it is always sunnier than over land. It might be cloudy and drizzling over land but once you get out on the ocean it's sunny.

4) We have another great advantage here in Puerto Aventuras Marina and that is we have a sheltered area just outside the marina where we can take you and anchor up if it's too windy. This way you can still have an awesome time enjoying the yacht, bar, swimming and snorkeling.

If the weather is so bad we decide not to go out, we will inform you the same day and try to reschedule your tour. If it's not possible to reschedule, we will of course refund you the money.

What if I need to cancel my yacht tour – how do I do that?

First contact us as quickly as possible so we can see if we can reschedule the tour for you. If a reschedule is not possible, the following cancellation fees apply: - 14 days before charter: 95% refund of the tour value - 7-14 days prior to charter: 75% refund of the tour value - Less than 7 days prior to charter is non-refundable.

How do I find the yacht?

Here is a map so you can easily find your way and we will give you more information when you make your booking.

Is transportation included?

No, but we can arrange professional transportation to pick you up at your location and bring you back after your tour has ended. We run a flat fee price of $150 USD for the roundtrip transportation anywhere in the Riviera Maya. You can read more about our transport services here.
If you decide to handle your own transportation, please make sure you arrive at least 15 min. before your tour starts.
Here is a map so you can easily find your way and we will give you more information when you make your booking.

What should I bring on my yacht tour?

We try to make it as easy for you as possible so you don't need to bring much. However please do bring sunglasses, sunscreen and a good mood.
We supply towels, high-end snorkel gear (Cressi) and of course all the food and drink. We even have a waterproof camera onboard so we even got the photos taken care of.

Can I bring my own alcohol?

Yes you can - but upon arriving at the yacht, please give anything you bring to our crew members so we can manage the bottles, since we do not allow glass on the yacht.
We will make sure to return any unfinished bottles of alcohol to you at the end of the tour.

What happens if I run late?

Please hurry get to the yacht as soon as possible!
We urge all our guests to plan ahead to be sure you arrive on time, preferably 15 minutes prior to tour departure time.
This is because we often have two tours a day that run back-to-back and we need to start our tours on time.
That means if you arrive an hour late you can still go on your tour but you will lose an hour of your time on our wonderful yacht.
If you are late due to our transportation running late, we will extend the tour or reimburse you.

I tend to get seasick – Can I still go?

Yes of course!
We always try to choose routes with the least amount of waves to get a smooth ride and it's always up to the clients if you wish to return to sheltered areas in the event someone in the group gets sick.

We are very lucky to have several destination options with calmer waters in case of sea sickness. First we have an amazing inlet which has completely flat water. The water is crystal clear, chest deep and great for relaxing and snorkeling. We also have La Bocana which is a sheltered area where the water is absolutely calm with only a low wall of rocks separating you from the ocean.

We always advise all clients, especially those prone to motion sickness, to take a pill like Dramamine before hand. We have Dramamine onboard and offer this to all clients who don't want to take any chances.

Dramamine tends to work the best and has no side effects. Better to be safe than sorry!

We have a baby/child – Can they come along?

Yes! We have life vests in very small sizes so children can come onboard. Just note however, that you will need to take complete responsibility for your baby or child and the choice and responsibility is 100% yours. Onboard the yacht there are plenty of areas which are shaded where you can be with your baby or child.
