PUERTO MORELOS SNORKELING

Great-Snorkeling-at-the-Maroma-Reef

Many people ask us if snorkeling is better in Puerto Morelos and the Maroma area versus, Puerto Aventuras and In’ah Bay. 

During certain times of the year, Maroma bay is a better location, there are fewer vessels. It is an area known for seaweed, which turtles feed on. There are still more examples of a more undeveloped coastline. You can se some amazing wildlife.

One of my favorite videos here shows the beautiful area we sail to here 

If you are looking to party, I would probably stick with the Puerto Aventuras Marina, as you can always go tot the Bocana bay. 

WHAT ABOUT COZUMEL?

Visiting Cozumel is a bucket list item for many people. There are a couple of ways to get there and snorkel. We have to mention that Cozumel has current so you want to be aware of that. 

The easiest option is to take the ferry over to Cozumel Island and book a tour to snorkel Palancar. 

Many of our clients rent a private boat for the day and sail or motor over to the island. While this is an amazing option we always want people to be aware this is about two hours to cross the sea between the coasts, unless you have great weather this can be a bumpy ride. If you are still game give us a chat and we can help you pick the best boats. Please note this is an 8 to 9-hour day trip.

Isla Mujeres Snorkeling

Hands down one of the prettiest oceans to cross and places to snorkel is Isla Mujeres. There are three different places to stop including the Musa museum, and attempt to repair the reef here.
