Yes, Cancun cruises and sailing experiences are worth it. While you can enjoy views of the Caribbean from the beach, treat yourself to a different perspective by seeing this corner of the Yucatan from the water. By boat, you can also explore Isla Mujeres and access offshore reefs for the best snorkeling and diving sites. Whether you charter a private yacht to have a romantic sunset sail or book a "booze cruise" to meet other travelers, you'll have a memorable experience not available on shore.

Per one customer who booked the Isla Mujeres Luxury Sailing: Adults Only or Family Friendly cruise, "What an absolutely memorable fun day!!!! We were picked up right in front of our hotel and then driven to the pier. Once there our tour guide told us exactly what to expect. He was with us the whole time. The staff aboard the catamaran made sure that we were all comfortable!!! The tour guide snorkeled with us and told us exactly what to watch out for!!! Food was delicious and the beverages were nonstop!!!! When you are in Cancun make sure to do this day trip!"

Before booking Cancun cruises and sailing experiences, calculate your total budget: Many group cruises include a stop at Isla Mujeres, where you may feel inclined (or pressured) to purchase souvenirs. Meanwhile, private cruises typically don’t include tips for the crew, as well as the marina or dock fees and taxes. Also, ensure you’ll be comfortable on the boat or ship—popular cruises have restrooms, but there may be queues as some vessels can accommodate upwards of 100 people on board.

To fully enjoy Cancun cruises and sailing experiences, bring tablets or wristbands to prevent seasickness, especially if you’re visiting between August and December. If you’re hoping to snorkel, align your expectations with the forecast, as this activity is more dependent on the weather—cross your fingers that the water is as clear as the photos online. And if you’re worried about missing the boat, or how much you’ll be consuming at the onboard bar offering unlimited drinks, consider upgrading so that your ticket includes hotel pickup and drop-off.

If you're short on time, you can still find fun Cancun activities to fit your schedule. Here are a few of the best Cancun cruises and sailing experiences to book if you just have an hour or less:
