Catamaran Cruise in Riviera Maya With Snorkeling & Beach Club

1.Catamaran Cruise in Riviera Maya With Snorkeling & Beach Club

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 440 reviews · 3 hours (approx.) · from $85Our pick

Sail from Maroma Beach, snorkel at two reef sites with guides such as Carlos or Nato, then relax with water, soda, and beer aboard the catamaran. Hotel transport is offered from Cancun, Playa del Carmen, and Riviera Maya. Allow extra time for transfers and beach-club arrangements.

“Very good - but I'd recommend bringing your own full face snorkel if you don't get along with the old style where you have to bite down. Boat crew and drivers were good and helpful, but afterwards in the restaurant / cab collection was a bit chaotic.”

“Please do not book with this company ever! I’ve had the worst experience with them. Their advertisement never states a child age restriction. They allow you to purchase tickets for children without advising people that children under 6 are not allowed on a catamaran and children under 8 are not allowed to snorkel in Cozumel waters. My daughter is 5 1/2 and after arriving at the meet up point, they told us we were not gonna be allowed to board the boat due to her being under 6. They took my full payment of $498 for 3 people (me my husband and daughter) and never informed us of an age…”

“Lunch is just a sandwich and apple. It is overpriced for what is offered. U would recommend either change price or enhance the "lunch". Staff is polite, credits to Fernando, but the girls are there only to take and sell photos to you.”
