A Great Day on the Clear Boat
Everyone in our group really enjoyed themselves on the boat trip. The tour guide explained some of the marine life in the area making it very interesting. We seen a huge Eagle Ray when we were snorkeling. There has been very few sightings of this beauty. The Titanic music was a great touch when we were over the shipwreck. It was a fantastic experience.

Paid but no tour!
Got cancelled just 2,5 hours upfront whereas I asked about likelihood a day before but no response. Also no response to my refund request, so paid for nothing!

No Reason and thanks for wasting our valuable family vacation time
Booked and found the location prior departure. Non English speaking person showed text message stating the event was canceled due to weather and request a refund. The weather was fairly nice compared to neighboring days so we booked another boat excursion only to see the glass boat on the water with a group of people.

Why this scores 52
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Crystal Boat Trip and Snorkeling Tour from Cozumel: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cozumel.
How much does Crystal Boat Trip and Snorkeling Tour from Cozumel cost?
+
Prices start at $29 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Cozumel usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Crystal Boat Trip and Snorkeling Tour from Cozumel take?
+
Plan for about 1.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Cozumel is not rushed.
Is Crystal Boat Trip and Snorkeling Tour from Cozumel worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 52 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.9/5 across 19 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Cozumel, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Crystal Boat Trip and Snorkeling Tour from Cozumel?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Crystal Boat Trip and Snorkeling Tour from Cozumel suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Crystal Boat Trip and Snorkeling Tour from Cozumel?
+
Around 7 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Cozumel can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Cozumel and add a light layer if any part of the 1.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Crystal Boat Trip and Snorkeling Tour from Cozumel start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Cozumel within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Cozumel?
+
On Outty we rank every Cozumel experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Jade Caverns and Mayan Village Cozumel ATV TOUR, Buggy, Beach & Snorkel Blast, ATV 4×4+Cenote+Snorkeling+Beach Club+ Lunch+Sabores de Cozumel. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Cozumel?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Cozumel?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
