This glass-bottom boat snorkel tour takes you snorkeling to El Cielo shallows* and 2 amazing reefs.
Made for real snorkel connoisseurs, on this trip you can search for amazing starfish at El Cielo (please don't touch them!) and you'll also go to beautiful reefs such as Palancar and Colombia.
Jump into the crystal clear waters where your qualified guide will show you the magnificent reef formations, colorful tropical fish and Cozumel's other forms of exciting marine life.
Those that prefer to keep dry can take a peek underwater through the "glass-bottom" window in the boat instead.
Your guide will give you an explanation and help you get used to your equipment, then you'll enjoy drifting over an incredible variety of soft and hard coral and be surrounded by colorful Caribbean fish. If you're lucky you might even see a ray, turtle or clawless lobster.
Relax onboard between snorkel stops and enjoy the views of Cozumel's beautiful coastline.
Soft drinks and beer, margaritas and tequila are all included after the snorkeling, as well as good quality snorkel equipment and life vests.
All boats have shade, sun-deck and bathrooms onboard.
We also offer a private version of this tour in small boats for up to 6 people.
* El Cielo and some reefs are sometimes closed to tourists due to the Marine Park conservation policy. If this happens other excellent stops will be included accordingly.
