All Isla Mujeres Tours & Excursions in 2026

First impressions: We were greeted by Mario on the docks where he quickly helped guide us toward our perfect itinerary. We came, not really knowing what we wanted besides some snorkeling and swim time but he walked us through our many options. I’d read in many reviews of other companies, that the actual boat looked nothing like the photos online, but this was not at all the case. This boat was beautiful! It was clean and had the netting to lounge in so you could watch the turquoise waters pass beneath. The bathrooms were also tidy and not too difficult to get to. They loaded us all on and made sure we were comfy, then it was time to set sail. The crew: Mario runs a very well oiled machine. This crew catered to our every need. They managed to nail the line between keeping our drinks full and not checking in too much. They helped guide us around the boat on choppy Waters, and even down the ladders to the bathrooms when needed. When I tell you, these men moved around this boat like they lived on water their whole lives, believe me. Jorge, Jose, and Charlie were absolute gems. We felt so safe and well cared for. It was as if this particular crew had worked together for years. They gave off the impression they were just there having fun with us, but mastered noticing each other’s cues and got done what needed to be. Always! I appreciated the fact I never felt like someone was waiting on me. It was more like you were at a party with an incredible host. Thanks guys! Snorkeling: We opted for the less crowded sunken ship snorkel. They had all the equipment we needed, including the flippers, the mask and a life belt. After helping us in the water, they jumped in right after us. I wasn’t expecting this, but they brought in one of the orange life rings from the boat. With this, I was able to just put my face in the water and calmly kick while one of the crew members guided me around/through the ship. Telling you that we saw a lot of fish would be an understatement. The beach/ Swimming: Mario had warned us early on that getting near the sandbar and close to the beach would be almost impossible. Somehow, he made it happen. They had Floaties and life vests ready for us so we could just Bob in the turquoise Waters above the white sands. It was incredible. The crew would swim out cocktails and drinks to us when our glasses got empty. It was a sight to see. I somehow managed to drop my sunglasses off the edge of the boat, and before I could even tell them that it was a cheap pair, one of the crew dove in after them. I’m still unsure how, but he returned with them in hand a minute later. Some of the passengers were worried about being able to pull themselves back up on the boat, but that was a non-issue with the crews help. The Photographer: Marco is a true professional. He managed to get these incredible photos all while not being invasive. I honestly would forget he was even there sometimes. This man would hang off ropes and over the edge of the boat to get the perfect shot and angle. He even dove in the water with me while I was snorkeling and took some incredible videos. I was truly surprised to see him down there. The couples photos and large GROUP shots were extremely thoughtful but the candids were some of my favorites. He even did these mini bikini photo shoots for some of the passengers on board. I’m talking Sports Illustrated level photos that should cost an arm and a leg to have taken. If you’re looking for engagement photos or photos for any special occasion, I highly recommend doing them on this boat while you’re there. Before we docked, Marco went to the galley and was able to edit and compile everything for us. I believe the cost was well under $200, but after seeing some of the previews, we opted to tip much more. A simple link was sent to a given email and was very simple to share with the entire group. Mario: You’re incredible! We felt as though we spent the day sailing with an old friend who went through great lengths to show us around their home turf. We got way more than our moneys worth with this company and crew. I’d like to request you every year we come back if possible. It wouldn’t be the same experience without you. Don’t forget to bring cash to TIP YOUR CREW. They’re working so hard but you’d never know with all the smiles and laughter. I cannot recommend them and this company enough. Tell them the Clark family sent you :)

Amazing half-day offshore trip! Captain and crew were super professional and fun. We hooked this massive barracuda (over 1m, teeth like knives!) after just a few casts – the fight was insane, line screaming, almost dragged me overboard. Smooth seas, beautiful blue water, cold drinks on board. The photo says it all – that gaping mouth is epic!

Beautiful snorkeling! I was about to give up on snorkeling. I had never really seen anything that interesting in the five times I had gone to other places. However, I felt like I was swimming through a school of fish a few times and they were right there, all over the place. Creation at its finest. I almost felt like I was swimming in a Disney animated film.

Fantastic experience! We took the 10am boat out and it was just our family and the wonderful captain/tourguide. My kids are 2 and 4, grandparents don’t love boats, and yet we all had the BEST TIME! I recommend the early time as there were very few other boats around, allowing for calm waters and so much marine activity (turtles, rays, barracudas, etc). It was exceptional!

This was amazing todo! Was a long boat ride a lot of people on our boat got sick. About an hour ride out to the whale sharks. Was amazing to see the whale sharks though! There are a lot of people around the sharks with you since all the tours go around them as well. Was still amazing though

This experience was so magical, it brought tears to my eyes! Our guides were so so amazing. It was a nice long boat ride out to where the whale sharks were, and our captain navigated those beautiful waters perfectly. We were able to enjoy the ride and take in the view on the way there. When we arrived he knew exactly how to get us up close and personal with the sharks. We saw two massive whale sharks and they were breathtaking. I looked one right in the eye!! After plenty of time in the water with the sharks, we took a ride to a nearby reef where we were able to explore on our own. Our main tour guide prepared us the most delicious lunch ever. I’ll be dreaming about that ceviche!! On the ride back we saw dolphins, sea turtles, and lots of birds which was a fun added bonus. This experience was perfect. They provided plenty of tasty food and drinks and they had all the supplies we needed (life jackets, snorkels, goggles). My two main pieces of advice are: 1) ditch the camera. You’ll need both hands to swim and you should really use every second to take it all in. The experience will turn out so much better than any photos. 2) be prepared to swim. This was a bit more physically demanding than I originally expected. The sharks are fast and constantly moving so you’ve got to swim quickly to keep up. But with the captain’s expert navigation, even our weaker swimmers got a good glimpse.

Easy to access. Walked over to their office and met a tour guide who walked us to the dock and boats. Headed right out and visited 3 spots to snorkel. Overall A+. Nice stop on the way back to the dock at a beach restaurant with great photo opportunities and loungers.

Overall a great experience because it’s a private tour. Our captain added a little fishing to the middle of our trip where he drove in circles with two poles hanging off the back trolling the waters where we got to reel in a couple little Mackerel. You start off by stopping at a decent snorkel spot where you see quite a few fish. Then ended with the sunset parked at North Beach. Honestly, the snorkel and minimal fishing experience is what we paid for as you can see the sunset from North Beach on your own. The snacks were limited as they only provided 2 bags of chips and a container of pineapple for our party of 8 adults. They did provide a big cooler of beer and water!
