Cancun Snorkeling Tour: Swim with Turtles, Reef, Underwater Museum and Shipwreck

Discover the magic of the Mexican Caribbean beneath Cancun’s warm, turquoise waters. Swim above El Meco’s colorful coral, explore the Cancun Underwater Museum (MUSA) with its collection of 500+ submerged sculptures, watch for sea turtles in their natural habitat and explore a shipwreck reclaimed by the Caribbean. Then comes something you probably never imagined finding beneath the sea—an underwater cenote, where freshwater emerges through the seabed in the Caribbean. In approximately two hours in the water, five remarkably different underwater experiences reveal just how much there is to discover beneath Cancun’s famous waters. First-time snorkeler? Small boats, shallow waters and attentive guides keep the experience personal and comfortable. By the time you climb back aboard, you’ll have snorkeled over coral, underwater art and a shipwreck, searched for sea turtles and even discovered a cenote beneath the Caribbean—all without leaving Cancun’s coast.
