Booked through our hotel in Playa del Carmen, we did this excursion to Isla de las Mujeres and Isla Contoy. The boat is unfortunately covered and travels very fast so you can not sunbathe but the staff is great at entertaining everyone with drinks and smiles and various ballets. The first stop in Isla Mujeres is reached quickly and takes about an hour of free time to walk or go to the beach. Then we leave for Isla Contoy, a pristine eco paradise that is the highlight of the day. You have to wear sunscreens beforehand because they are picked up before snorkeling (which is done halfway between the two islands) to protect the corals from contamination. On May 2 when we did the excursion there was a strong current and then the snorkeling was done strictly in a group and accompanied by two of the crew. Then you get to Contoy which is a paradise on earth. Immaculate beach, good lunch and then about two and a half hours to enjoy the beach. You can also take a walking tour accompanied by them. Unforgettable trip made special by the crew, especially Ulises and Edgar! I recommend it!

Join us in this eco-adventure snorkeling tour to the only virgin island in the Mexican Caribbean the national park and ecological reserve of Contoy Island. Before exploring Contoy, we make a 45 minute stop in dowtown Isla Mujeres, this is the perfect time for souvenirs or just walking around in it's beautiful "malecon". Then, we head to Contoy, where you can experience its unique flora and fauna with our certified bilingual guides, and snorkel at the scenic Ixlache reef which marks the start of the 2nd largest reef barrier in the world. This also includes a gastronomic experience during lunch, the famous Tikinxic fish will be served, fresh out of the water, broiled and marinated in local spices along with grilled chicken, salad and your favorite drink, an open domestic bar is also included in the tour (soft drinks, beer and cocktails). After Contoy Island we return to our marina, expect a very joyfull return to Cancun with our fantastic crew!
