What To Expect
Get ready for a fun 2-hour adventure in Cancun where you get to drive your own two-person speedboat. The tour starts with a quick but important safety briefing at the marina. Once you’re set, you’ll follow your guide through the beautiful mangrove canals of Nichupté Lagoon.
After cruising through the lagoon, you’ll head out to the Caribbean Sea and arrive at the stunning Ángel Reef, part of the world’s second-largest coral reef system. There, you’ll stop for around 40 minutes to snorkel in crystal-clear water full of colorful fish, corals, and maybe even rays or turtles if you’re lucky.
When snorkeling’s done, you’ll hop back on your boat and cruise back through the lagoon, soaking in the views and sea breeze.
It’s a perfect mix of adventure and nature—great for couples, friends, or families with kids (ages 5 and up). The whole experience is guided, easy to enjoy, and definitely one to remember.

The answers provided below were previously given in response to questions from Cool Cancun customers.
Filter by:
Yes, we allow pregnant women to go on snorkeling. However, it’s crucial to consult with your healthcare provider before doing so to assess your individual health and pregnancy stage.
Jan 2022Yes, this is possible, as long as you are comfortable going into the water. All Cool Cancun snorkeling tours adhere to strict safety regulations and have been designed to be enjoyed by all.
Your safety is our #1 priority, which is why:
- You will be wearing a flotation device at all times.
- On many tours, there is a stairway from the boat into the water so you won’t have to “jump” in!
- There are trained staff in the water and watching from the boat at all times.
For these reasons, we believe that even non-swimmers can have a wonderful time on our snorkeling trips, however, the final judgment call is yours to make. Please note we do not give refunds if you decide not to snorkel on the trip.
Oct 2021The snorkel gear we use on Cool Cancun tours is high quality and for your protection, the equipment is sanitized after each use. However, if you feel more comfortable using your own snorkeling equipment, feel free to bring it on the tour. Please note, there is no discount for providing your own equipment and we can’t be responsible for any lost or damaged items.
May 2023First-time snorkelers can be assured of one-on-one instruction and assistance. We find introducing folks to our world very rewarding!
Oct 2021There are no legal age limits for snorkeling. We have found that age 5 or 6 is a good age to learn the basics of snorkeling, however, it’s entirely up to individuals to make the best choice for their family.
Sep 2021If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy.
