Small-Group Mesoamerican Barrier Reef Snorkeling in Puerto Morelos

Sharon_S, Jul 2026

If you want the most time in the water, this is the tour!

Was a fabulous experience, we had a lot of fun. The tour is well organized. One of the few tours where there was no sitting around waiting…. A fast short walk to the boat, quickly loaded and we were off! For the 2 hour tour we spent about 1.5 hours in the water, loved it. Christopher is a great guide and very knowledgeable. We saw tons of fish, a turtle, ray, and nurse shark!

Reef Snorkel in Puerto Morelos With Lunch And Transportation

Michelle_K, Jul 2026

Great tour but too much down time at end

Loved the snorkeling- picked up on time from hotel- Charlie Brown and frank were most organized crew. All had to attend tequila tasting- not in original plans. Lunch was just ok because tacos were cold and only allowed to stop at “authorized store” on way to lunch. After lunch had to sit there for at least 45 min to an hour before van picked us up.

Puerto Morelos Catamaran Reef Sail and Snorkel

Jesse_W, Jun 2026

Amazing tour, highly recommended. We were visiting from Denver and loved being out on the water.

Great tour, I can’t recommend them highly enough! We had a small group, just four of us. Ulises (?) was very helpful and patient with me in the water, since I hadn’t snorkeled before. The reef itself was like swimming in an aquarium. Angel and Arturo were awesome on the boat as we sailed back. I grew up sailing but live in Colorado now, and it felt so good to be back on the water. These guys are great if you can book them.
