We operate one of the best all-inclusive snorkel experiences on the island of Cozumel, traveling to some of the most beautiful areas the Caribbean has to offer.
Sailing every day, we depart from the third pier which is a 5 minute walk from the ferry terminal. 9:30AM, 12PM & 2PM.
We can also pick you up en-route from certain hotels that have a pier.
All times shown are for Cozumel’s local timezone, which may differ to your cruise ship timezone. Check before booking, and please aim to arrive about 20 minutes before your scheduled departure.
You can modify or cancel your booking up to 24 hours before your scheduled sailing time.
Literally translating into English as ‘Heaven’, with turquoise blue waters and an abundance of starfish – it’s easy to see why!
El Cielo is only accessible by boat and boasts one of the most impressive snorkeling spots in the whole of Cozumel.
Due to it’s unique location, the water is shallow (~8ft or 2m) and nearly always crystal clear.
The not-so-little brother of El Cielo, with equally stunning blues, white sand beach, and water shallow enough to stand.
This often makes it the perfect spot to anchor up, relax, and enjoy some well-earned drinks and snacks towards the end of our tour.
We are often always greeted by friendly stingrays on this portion of the tour, who roam the area curious to meet our new guests! This is a great underwater photo opportunity, or simply feel free to watch them swim by as we enjoy the sun and crystal-clear waters.
The prevailing currents at Columbia Reef make this a perfect habitat for many aquatic organisms, including many species of coral and brightly colored tropical fish.
Being a deeper reef, we sometimes even see larger species such as the beautiful spotted eagle ray and sting ray, when they come in to feed.
In terms of size, Cozumel’s reef system is actually second only to Australia’s Great Barrier Reef – making it a top worldwide destination for scuba diving.
As a snorkeler, you’ll get to explore part of this reef system here at Palancar too, witnessing some of the incredible coral formations and more commonly encountered sea turtles.
We’re all about providing you with the best experience possible.
All our comfortable boats are fully equipped with safety features, powerful well-maintained engines, and staffed by experienced crew. We also go that one-step further, providing you with top-notch equipment and refreshments throughout the whole tour*.
