Overview

Experience two very different sides of the Mexican Caribbean in one day by combining the protected natural environment of Isla Contoy with the lively island atmosphere of Isla Mujeres. The experience begins with snorkeling at Ixlaché Reef, followed by a guided visit to Isla Contoy, where you can learn about its ecosystems, wildlife, birdlife, and conservation efforts. Unlike a typical beach excursion, this tour gives you time to discover the island’s natural environment, relax on its white-sand beach, swim in shallow waters, and enjoy a second snorkeling opportunity near the shore.

The experience also includes a traditional regional buffet, allowing you to enjoy local flavors during your visit to Contoy. After spending time in the protected reserve, the tour continues to Isla Mujeres, offering a completely different atmosphere with free time to explore downtown, browse local shops, and look for souvenirs.
