Overview

This half-day tour from Cancun and the Riviera Maya begins with a visit to Akumal Beach, located along the Mexican Caribbean coast. Participants spend about one and a half hours snorkeling in clear waters, searching for sea turtles among brightly colored tropical fish and rays. Turtle sightings are guaranteed during this time. After snorkeling, the group travels to Parque De Cenotes Yax-Muul, situated in the subtropical forest of the Yucatan Peninsula. Here, a guided walk leads through caves and caverns before spending approximately one and a half hours swimming and snorkeling in a large freshwater cenote surrounded by thousands of stalagmites and stalactites. The total tour duration is around five hours. Included are round-trip transportation from Cancun and the Riviera Maya, snorkel gear, life vests for all water activities, bottled water, snacks, and a bilingual guide. A separate marine conservation fee is required but not included in the price. Participants should bring a towel, swimsuit, change of clothes, hat or cap, sunglasses, and water shoes or sandals. Sunscreen is not allowed before water activities; wearing long-sleeve water shirts is recommended. Basic swimming skills are necessary to join the aquatic portions of the tour.
