via Tripadvisor
We had a great time. The crew made the trip amazing!
The crew made the trip a blast. The boats were always running 10-20 minutes late. More people than I would have liked snorkeling (several boats were there). But the trip itself was worth the value!
via Viator
Just awful, refund requested, will not recommend.
No. Should not have been out in This terrible weather. Too cold, too scary, everyone getting motion sickness. Terrible boat. Food was awful at stop. Golf carts were old, loud, bad equipment. Toured the :( part of the island. Your should have been cancelled.

The ambiance was great the crew so friendly, the buffet was great but the beach was amazing with long chairs to sit on

You get what you pay for...
You get what you pay for - a fun catamaran ride and lunch. Staff on board are very nice! But you're stuck at the beach club unless you pay $60 USD for a golf cart "tour" of the island. We didn't like that there was no alternative way to see the southern part of the island, the food was okay, and the beach was all rocky. The north beach was very crowded, chairs and umbrellas can be rented for 500 pesos. We were more comfortable at our resort beach in Cancún. Wish there was more than 20 minutes of snorkelling, I know there was more reef and statues to see.

Why this scores 57
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Giant Catamaran - Cancun to Isla Mujeres Playa Norte - Non Drowsy: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Playa del Carmen.
How much does Giant Catamaran - Cancun to Isla Mujeres Playa Norte - Non Drowsy cost?
+
Prices start at $23 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Playa del Carmen usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Giant Catamaran - Cancun to Isla Mujeres Playa Norte - Non Drowsy take?
+
Plan for about 8 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 Playa del Carmen is not rushed.
Is Giant Catamaran - Cancun to Isla Mujeres Playa Norte - Non Drowsy worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 57 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.9/5 across 32 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Playa del Carmen, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Giant Catamaran - Cancun to Isla Mujeres Playa Norte - Non Drowsy?
+
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 Giant Catamaran - Cancun to Isla Mujeres Playa Norte - Non Drowsy suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Giant Catamaran - Cancun to Isla Mujeres Playa Norte - Non Drowsy?
+
Around 11 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 Playa del Carmen 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 Playa del Carmen and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Giant Catamaran - Cancun to Isla Mujeres Playa Norte - Non Drowsy 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 Playa del Carmen 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 Playa del Carmen?
+
On Outty we rank every Playa del Carmen experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include VIP Chichen Itza Private Tour, VIP Tulum Private Tour, Chichen Itza Private Tour VIP. 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 Playa del Carmen?
+
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 Playa del Carmen?
+
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.
