Easy check in and walk to the catamaran. We were greeted by 4 people managing the boat. Super friendly and knowledgeable about everything. Safety is the number one priority. We did 3 stops for snorkeling and they were all amazing. Took awesome pictures and had a great experience. Our last stop was were we drank and ate. The ceviche and fruit were so yummy and fresh. The drinks kept on coming and we had the best time ever. Highly recommend this excursion.

Travelers praise snorkeling for diverse marine life and clear waters, alongside scenic landscapes and memorable underwater photography. Guides receive consistent praise for friendliness, clear communication, and safety focus. Food and drinks, including ceviche and tropical fruits served on surfboards, enhance the experience. While value is generally appreciated, some note extra photo charges and occasional expectation mismatches. Tour planning and pacing draw mixed reviews, with some flagging organizational issues and rushed stops.

This was an amazing experience. It was well run and organized. We traveled with our 2 children 6 and 8. We brought our own full face snorkel masks that they were used to so cannot comment on gear. We saw tons of fish, a nurse shark, a sea turtle, star fish and lots of sting rays. The swimming was very easy and close to the boat. We decided to buy the pictures at the end too because they were amazing. Only con -- for my 6 year old (<50 lbs) the life jacket was a little too loose to snorkel without affecting her mask, so if possible bring a small life jacket if bringing a smallish kiddo.
This is a great way to learn about snorkeling with clear, warm water and lots of marine life to see!

Thank you for your kind review! We’re happy you enjoyed discovering the underwater world of Cozumel. Our goal is to make every snorkeling experience fun, comfortable, and unforgettable. We hope to see you again soon for another adventure with our crew! 🐠🌊
The staff was exceptional. They were very attentive to swimmers and helping those that needed alittle assistance. All 3 snorkel spots were in deep water. The last spot was a beautiful sandbar about 4 feet deep we ate some very good Mexican appetizers and beer, soda, margaritas etc. The only reason I gave it a 4 star was that there was too many people on board . We were on top of each other trying to see the fish the crew found for us to see. But the staff made it a fun afternoon. I saw a turtle, barracuda, nurse shark and a beautiful reef on the first stop. The first stop is the best one to see a reef

Great snorkeling experience! Arrived at Cozumel on a cruise ship, Cozumel Snorkeling was very clear on meeting place instructions and pickup was summer smooth. 4 different stops, saw lots of fish, swimming sea turtles, a baby shark, starfish, and stingrays. Super patient with less experienced snorkelers, looked after them and ensured they had a great experience. Highly recommended!

I recommend anyone going to Cozumel to take this snorkeling trip. The entire crew was friendly and engaging. They made sure everyone had a good time. Snorkeling equipment is provided and is in good order. The trip was long enough but didn’t take up an entire day. We went to three different sites and saw large schools of fish, turtles, nurse sharks, and sting rays. The lunch and coctails on the surfboard in the water was a perfect way to end the trip. Full disclosure – the “luxury catamaran” is a colorful description. The boat is not new, but it’s clean and charming.

This is an amazing trip with 4 different locations to see a wide variety of the sea life. First stop was snorkelling in a deep area within the reef with numerous colourful fish and also a small shark. The next stop was snorkeling to see turtles. Only 1 turtle was found but again the fish were amazing. Third stop was a shallow area with starfish and then on to a beach where we just waded in the water while stingrays swam around us and occasionally bumped into us. To top that off we then had rum punch or Marguerite’s on the way back.
The guys running the event were amazing! Very helpful in finding and pointing out the fish etc. We also had a photographer on board who took great photos of us snorkelling and diving down to the fish etc.

We did the trip on Oct 27, 2026
It was very well organized from the get go. Meeting spot in cozumel was easy to find. We went to 3 snorkeling sites and seen turtles, starfish, baby sharks, stingrays. The staff was great. Went out of their way to make sure we were all comfortable. They assisted my wife who needed extra help into the waters. Salsa lunch was served in the 3 ft water on a large surf board. Approx 20 people on the catamaran so wasn't crowded. Beer, tequila and other drinks were all included. Would definitely recommend

We’re especially happy that your wife felt supported and was able to enjoy the snorkeling experience too. Seeing turtles, starfish, baby sharks, and stingrays makes for unforgettable memories! We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you both back aboard for another amazing adventure in Cozumel! 🌴🐢🤿
What an amazing experience! Obviously with wildlife, it can be hit or miss and we get that. But that being said, we were able to see sharks, absolutely massive schools of tropical fish, sea turtles, starfish, sting rays... and the lunch at the end was fantastic. The boat is great and the staff is top notch. Probably could use an upgrade in the masks and snorkels as they are very basic, but this is a small niggle as they are completely workable. I would wholeheartedly recommend this excursion! Easy to get to from SSA terminal where Royal Caribbean docks (and by the sounds of it the other terminal was easy as well). Jumped on the catamaran and we were off. Great work, team!

Thank you for your wholehearted recommendation! It was a pleasure having you on board, and we hope to welcome you back for another unforgettable adventure soon! 🌊☀️
The Captain and staff aboard the Poisidon catamaran were super nice, friendly and funny. I was hoping to see more sea turtles but our time down under only revealed 1 small and 1 medium size sea turtle. Saw lots of fish, lots of starfish fish, coral and a few of us saw a nurse shark, 1 Lobster and rays. The snack provided at the sand bar stop with guacamole, pico and cerviche was delicious but we did not find the margaritas or rum punch too tasty - not enough alcohol and watered down. A neat surprise at the sandbar were a few beautiful graceful harmless rays swimming around us which our photographer captured on underwater camera with different groups of people in them. He was busy getting video and photos and we did buy a photo package but found the process to decide and purchase on board at end of cruise when they were approaching our dock and at the dock too difficult in the sun without our regular glasses on . Plus we were holding up the boat leaving to drop others off. I would have liked to have been provided a QR code link as the offered to leave a review for the excursion in which we could have viewed the pics without a crunch for time and when not in direct sunlight and order in a more user-friendly way - especially because we did not bring wallets or credit cards and only enough money for gratuity and $5pp dock fee from our resort plus $10pp marine fee.

We will contact you using the information provided with your reservation so we can follow up on this matter and work toward a solution together with the photographer.

Snorkeling in three different locations to see a variety of fish, turtles, & marine life. Our guide was amazing at keeping us together to see all the beauty of the sea and keeping us safe.

Cannot recommend enough!! And didn’t realize it was included but fresh ceviche, guacamole, and pico with margaritas served at the beach in the water! Would rebook again! Baby turtle doesn’t let you go thirsty!😂

The trip was wonderful. The photographer was really great at capturing photos of you with the fish.
You end up going to 4 different beaches. 3 for seeing the fish, turtles, and starfish, and a final sandbar to eat chips with ceviche and guacamole on a paddle board with stingrays swimming around. Such a great experience. Would totally do it again.
If you’re scared of open water or the ocean in general, there are so many people and the water isn’t that deep that it was not a fearful experience at all.

The crew was very professional, fun and nice. Several places to get picked up from. Even though the water was a little choppy, the catamaran handled it well, and the water was still very clear. We enjoyed the snorkeling thoroughly, saw turtles, a barracuda, tons of fish, beautiful coral, and a bunch of rays at the last stop. The pictures from Rafa are amazing. Do not hesitate to book this excursion.

"Luxury" pays for more room, instead of a small boat- which means smoother ride, and for the snacks and drinks which we thought was worth it. They will ask for and additional $10usd/$200pesos per person at dock, for gratuities at the end, and for optional purchase of photos. Spent a good amount of time at each spot and our snorkel guide Leo was great at pointing out sea life so we wouldn't miss it (saw baby shark, sea turtle, giant lobster, star fish, manta rays). We didn't drink alcohol but they offered margaritas, rum punch, and beer at the last stop (playa El Cielo sandbar). They prepared a plate of delicious ceviche with fresh guacamole for everyone and had fresh fruit. The ride back was a little lengthy as they slow down to ask for tips and allow the photographer to sell his photos. Crew was fun and friendly (Captain Chuleta, Chef Turtle, Guide Leo, & Photographer Rafael). Tour was closer to 5hrs total.

Great for novice and experienced snorklers. The crew are helpful and friendly. You can buy pictures at the end for about 30.00 USD each person. Snacks at the sandbar were delicious. Fresh guacamole, ceviche and pineapple while sting rays swam around you was truly amazing.Length of tour was just right for us.

Long boat ride to the snorkel site, however, we did get see a sea turtle, a small shark, starfish and multiple sting rays up close. I would recommend this trip with the entire family.

We booked this excursion in early 2026 - it was amazing! We docked at Puerta Maya cruise terminal and walked 6 minutes to El Cid hotel - once there we waited for some time while other travelers found their way to the meeting point.
The snorkel sites were amazing! The staff was so friendly. We are returning to Cozumel in Nov 2026 and I have booked this excursion again it was that great! With snorkeling you may go to the same spots but I love how you will see different things each time you get into the water.

They also got some amazing pictures for us and they were totally worth the extra money. The lunch was great and so tasty. I highly recommend this trip.
One caution which was my fault for not reading well enough. They won’t let you put sunscreen on while on the catamaran even if it’s “reef safe”. They were nice about it and explained the “why”. Make sure you bring appropriate clothing for sun protection or take care of things before they pick you up.

The Poseidon crew led by Baby Turtle are excellent! They picked us up from the dock behind our hotel, gave us life vests, snorkeling gear and water, and we picked up a couple other groups. There were about 24 of us on the tour, plus crew. It’s not a *luxury* cat, but it’s sufficient. Apply reef-safe sunscreen before you get onto the boat. We also wore long-sleeve rash guards to prevent sunburn. Also glad that we bought an inexpensive dry bag off Amazon before we left. Everyone else’s backpacks got wet on the boat.
Baby Turtle was entertaining, made sure everyone was safe, and everyone was taken care of. Plenty of drinks on the way back. Ceviche, guac and chips were yummy at the sandbar. We ate snacks while the rays swam around us.
Some people post that the snorkeling was rushed, but we thought it was enough. We were able to see four different spots in a short amount of time with different fish and environments. We saw two sea turtles, big starfish, rays, a bioluminescent jellyfish, and other fish. The blue water and sand are out of this world!
We ended up buying the photo package. Rafael got great pictures of us with the wildlife. It was cheaper than buying a disposable camera and having the film developed, and he got great photos and lots of videos that we wouldn’t have been able to get ourselves.
I got a little seasick in the water (but not on the boat). I’m glad that I brought a Bonine to take on the boat.

This excursion was SO FUN! My husband and I love to snorkel and this excursion did not disappoint! The staff were so friendly, fun, and observant to make sure everyone stayed safe! We saw a variety of sea critters! (Turtles, starfish, stingrays, even a shark and barracuda!) there was someone taking pictures of us to purchase after the excursion if we wanted (I bought them all! They were amazing!) one staff member even took my GoPro and dove with it to get beautiful closeups of the animals and reefs for me! After we had the BEST ceviche + guacamole + chips. (Another big perk, they had a restroom on the boat) 10/10 recommend! So glad we booked this excursion!
