  • Marina Punta Norte
    Begin your adventure with hotel pickup, if included, or arrive directly at Marina Punta Norte. After check-in, enjoy a short snorkeling briefing before heading out. Board your boat for the short ride to El Meco Reef, a beautiful shallow snorkeling area along the Great Mayan Reef. Slip into the warm Caribbean and snorkel above colorful coral as tropical fish swim around you. With depths of approximately 8–12 feet (2.5–3.5 meters) and generally mild currents, it's a great place to begin your underwater adventure. Next, discover the Cancun Underwater Museum (MUSA), where art becomes part of the marine world. Its collection of 500+ submerged sculptures was designed to evolve beneath the sea, creating new habitats as coral and marine life grow around them. Glide above giant submerged statues beneath the blue Caribbean as marine life transforms the artwork over time.
  • Museo Subacuatico de Arte
    Your underwater adventure continues in a favorite area for sea turtle sightings, watching for turtles gliding through the Caribbean in their natural habitat. Rays and other marine life may also make an appearance. Next, explore a shipwreck reclaimed by the Caribbean, now covered in colorful coral and surrounded by schools of tropical fish. With white sand below and crystal-clear turquoise water all around, it feels like snorkeling through a natural Caribbean pool. For your final snorkeling experience, discover an underwater cenote, where freshwater emerges through the seabed. Explore this unusual natural formation and the marine life around it—a fascinating final glimpse into Cancun's underwater world. After experiencing five snorkeling areas—from coral reefs and underwater art to turtles, a shipwreck and an underwater cenote—enjoy the short boat ride back to Marina Punta Norte. Take a freshwater shower, then relax on your return ride to your hotel if transportation is included.
