The 15 Best Snorkelling Tours in Cozumel

49 tours

The reef starts a few hundred metres off the west shore, and the best gardens sit shallow enough to read clearly from the surface. These 15 snorkelling trips are the ones to book: how many stops each makes, whether gear and lunch are in the price, and which suit a first-timer or a nervous swimmer.

“First of all the excursion value is great. We had clear communication with booking details and access via the app and email. We met at Punta Langosta Cruise Terminal Shops (Starbucks). Which was super convenient because you bypass all the other mass gathering of cruise excursions at the port side. We left the ship made our way down the port to the escalator walked on the overpass and down the steps to Starbucks. Super easy. Then we called them to confirm arrival. They confirmed Carlos was already onsite to pick us up. I hung up and he was there. He was our private guide for the day which was awesome.…”

“Our jeep driver and guide, Carlos was wonderful. The weather was beautiful, but not warm enough to swim so Carlos took us around the entire island. We enjoyed our chats, our views and the many locations that we stopped to ask questions. The lunch of tacos was wonderful. The only complaint our group had about the entire experience was the not really knowing where to meet the guide once we were off of the boat.
