“Know where you are meeting. The GPS address did not line up with the actual meeting place (inside a shopping mall). The food was fantastic. I could have skipped the market visit.”

2.Cozumel: El Cielo, Palancar Reef, and Beach Party with Food

★★★★★★★★★★4.4 · 257 reviews · from $97Best value

Spend five hours aboard a 65-foot Fury catamaran, snorkeling Palancar Reef and swimming at El Cielo’s starfish sandbar before lunch at Fury Private Beach. You’ll get guided snorkeling, a snorkel pipe to keep, kayaks, paddleboards, a floating water park, and drinks served after snorkeling.

“This was an incredible activity. From the time we arrived to the return was completely awesome! The staff are incredible and each stop was lovely. It was great to have a snorkel guide in the water. I was nervous because I thought it would be a non-stop party vibe but it turned out to be quite family friendly. The entire catamaran had a hard metal deck so I wish there was a net or some place more comfortable for laying out in the sun. I also would’ve loved more time at the beach club but I’m grateful for the time we had at each spot.”
