Snorkeling in Cancun
Snorkeling in Cancun is one of the most popular activities there is to do if you are visiting Cancun. It’s definitely one of the most recommended activities.
Cancun and the Riviera Maya has the second largest corral reef in the world. So the sea life and corral reef structures you experience here is amazing.
There are many places that you can snorkel. It all depends on which tour you choose for where they will take you to snorkel. I will show you the best snorkeling tours in Cancun and the Riviera Maya.
One of the best snorkeling tours is the: Snorkel express in Yalku. This is one of my favorite tours and I think you would love it if you want to experience great snorkeling and only that. If you don’t want to be in a huge park with a lot of people and you prefer a private, personalized service. Then this tour is for you.

Another great tour to snorkel is the private boat rental
Renting your own private boat for the day with a great captain and assistant sailor is also a great way to snorkel.
This is nice if you are with a small group of less than 10 people and you want a private service with a great price.
Go out for as long as you want to snorkel at the reefs near Isla Mujeres and even have some free time on the Island if you wish. Since it’s your own private boat, you make the rules and set your itinerary.
Snorkeling in Cancun on a Luxury Catamaran
I think this is also one of the best ways to snorkel in Cancun. Enjoy a beautiful sailing day towards Isla Mujeres on a luxury catamaran.
Of course, this tour is not just a snorkeling tour. You will also have open bar, free time in Isla Mujeres, lunch buffet on a private beach club, and the spinnaker activity. But I still think it’s of the best snorkeling tours because it does have great snorkeling at the reefs near Isla Mujeres.
Turtle Express should also be on this list of best snorkeling tours
This is a great half-day, personalized tour for you to try. This is snorkeling tour is perfect if you want to snorkel with turtles.
This will be the only tour that you will be face to face with real turtles on a public beach. Akumal Bay is where the turtles nest in the Riviera Maya and you will always see turtles.
