Only in Cancun can you combine an exciting boat ride through a mangrove swamp, a submarine-style glass bottom boat ride and an afternoon of snorkeling to make an awesome family adventure! Spend the morning or afternoon below the Cancun waters - in a submarine or snorkeling as well if you don't mind getting wet!
Highlights
- Sub See Explorer submarine-like ride
- Snorkeling adventure in Punta Nizuc, the second-largest coral reef in the world
- Lunch and bottled water included
You’ll start by boarding a reef shuttle boat and wind through the mangrove maze of Nichupte Lagoon until you reach the coral reef of Punta Nizuc, the second-largest coral reef in the world. Here you’ll climb aboard the Sub See Explorer, a submarine-style glass bottom boat, embarking on a magical underwater ride.
You’ll glide past gardens of brightly-colored coral, as your guide points out the details of the marine life that calls this habitat home – expect to see a wide range of creatures, from butterfly fish to barracudas and even the occasional dolphin!
Following your Sub See Explorer adventure, you can choose to take advantage of a floating platform for an optional snorkeling adventure! Dive into the turquoise depths of Punta Nizuc’s reef and explore the nooks and crannies of the reef with an expert guide. As the reef is home to 300 species of tropical fish, snorkeling at Punta Nizuc is an underwater experience not to be missed. As a gift, you get to keep your snorkel and you can use it to enjoy other snorkeling spots in the Cancun area.
Included is a delicious lunch at a local restaurant.
