Double Reef Snorkel, El Cielo & Playa Mía by Catamaran at Cozumel starting from Cancun

Itinerary

1. We'll meet you at your Hotel’s lobby (or Airbnb) or near the entrance, but it’s important for your hotel to be situated at one of these locations; Puerto Juarez, Cancun, Puerto Morelos, or any hotel between Cancun and Playa del Carmen. There’s a maximum of three stops that the van could make along the way, including yours.


2. At your arrival at Playa del Carmen, a guide will be waiting for you and will walk you to the Ferry Pier where you might have to wait for the rest of the passengers to arrive before the Ferry docks. It’s important to note that beverages and snacks aren’t included in the Ferry, so you’ll have to pay for them if you want some.


3. Once we get off the ferry, you’ll be taken to Playa Mía’s stand located at Cozumel’s Ferry Pier where the Catamaran will be waiting for you and where you’ll pay the remaining balance.


4. You'll board the Catamaran “Aquadream” and the guide on board will explain safety measures and protocol you'll have to follow underwater, as well as how to use your equipment correctly. It's essential to pay close attention.


5. The boat ride to the first stop takes around 30-40 minutes.


6. The guide will hand you your equipment with your new snorkel tube, courtesy of us at Safe Tours Cozumel, which is a sign that it is time to start jumping in the water.


7. Your first stop will be Colombia and Palancar Reefs, where a photographer will offer to take some underwater photos of you and your family and where you’ll see the biggest coral formations. After around 30-40 minutes, you'll be asked to board back up.


8. Next stop is “El Cielo” there, you'll spend another 20-25 minutes, and you’ll get to see by yourself if it truly lives up to its name.


9. Afterwards, the boat will take you to your final destination where you’ll spend your remaining time at sea: “El Cielito”. Here you’ll get to sit back and relax while the guides bring out the snacks and drinks. the water here is so shallow that you can sit in the sand and enjoy your refreshments there.


10. The boat will take you to “Playa Mía” where you’ll have your lunch and there you can spend your remaining time playing in the water games or chilling by the sand.


11. After lunch, you’ll head back to the Ferry Pier to board the 6 pm Ferry back to Playa del Carmen.


12. Once you arrive at Playa del Carmen, the driver will be waiting for you outside Señor Frogs, and you’ll be good to go back to your hotel after having a fantastic day at Cozumel!!!
