Make your own way to Cancun’s marina and greet your guide beside your boat. Climb on board and ride to the site of the ‘Silent Evolution,’ a submerged selection of statues positioned on the ocean floor. Watch a snorkeling demonstration from your guide then don your equipment and plunge into the Caribbean Ocean.
Snorkel and explore the 500 figures in the exhibition; see how British artist Jason DeCaires Taylor sculpted the figures from pH neutral clay and note the abundance of marine life thriving among the statues.
Dry off in the soothing Mexican sunshine on the ride back to the Cancun marina then bid your guide and group farewell on arrival.
