    Excellent experience!

    I highly recommend this experience! The staff was attentive and friendly. The total group was small so there was plenty of room to relax and enjoy the sailing. The snorkeling was in a beautiful uncrowded environment and we were able to see coral, fish, sting rays and turtles. The lunch was plentiful and hit the spot after a morning of swimming. Ulysses, Arturo, and Angel were super fun, helpful and knowledgeable. They kept our glasses full. I read a lot of reviews before booking this trip, we did not want to be on a party boat with tons of people and this trip was perfect. They provided lots of special extras and we got lots of boat and snorklinh time. Exactly what we wanted. I highly recommend!!

    Response from the operator: Dear Margaret: Thank you for your wonderful comments about your recent visit. We are delighted to hear that the service was attentive, and that you enjoyed the experience. We look forward to welcoming you back for another relaxing and unforgettable visit.

    Amazing tour, highly recommended. We were visiting from Denver and loved being out on the water.

    Great tour, I can’t recommend them highly enough! We had a small group, just four of us. Ulises (?) was very helpful and patient with me in the water, since I hadn’t snorkeled before. The reef itself was like swimming in an aquarium. Angel and Arturo were awesome on the boat as we sailed back. I grew up sailing but live in Colorado now, and it felt so good to be back on the water. These guys are great if you can book them.

    Great day on the water

    Super friendly hosts. From pick up to drop off everything was taken care of. We enjoyed our time on the catamaran with lunch and never ending drinks :) The snorkeling was a ton of fun and we were excited to see a sea turtle. Don’t forget to reapply your sunscreen after the snorkeling!!

    Fantastic Snorkeling Excursion

    Friendly, very helpful, and informative staff members. We got a longer catamaran trip and still had enough time to snorkel and explore the barrier reef. Lunch was good and exactly as described. They were safety conscious by having guided at the front and back of the group. A bit more instruction would be beneficial for those who have not been snorkeling prior to this trip.

    Puerto Morelos Catamaran Reef Sail and Snorkel: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cancun.

    How much does Puerto Morelos Catamaran Reef Sail and Snorkel cost?

    +

    Prices start at $120 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Cancun usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Puerto Morelos Catamaran Reef Sail and Snorkel take?

    +

    Plan for about 3.5 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 Cancun is not rushed.

    Is Puerto Morelos Catamaran Reef Sail and Snorkel worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 74 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 132 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Cancun, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Puerto Morelos Catamaran Reef Sail and Snorkel?

    +

    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 Puerto Morelos Catamaran Reef Sail and Snorkel suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Puerto Morelos Catamaran Reef Sail and Snorkel?

    +

    Around 46 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 Cancun 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 Cancun and add a light layer if any part of the 3.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Puerto Morelos Catamaran Reef Sail and Snorkel 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 Cancun 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 Cancun?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Cancun experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Chichen Itza from Cancun : Cenote, Valladolid and Mayan Cuisine, Early Access to Chichen Itza with optional pick-up, Small-Group 3 Hidden Cenotes Adventure with Tequila Tasting. 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 Cancun?

    +

    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 Cancun?

    +

    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.

    What is included in Puerto Morelos Catamaran Reef Sail and Snorkel?

    +

    Included: Alcoholic beverages; Snorkeling gear; Lunch; Puerto Morelos National Marine Park certified guide; and Local taxes. Not included: Gratuities; National Park & Dock fees ($20USD per person); Towels; and Entrance fees. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Puerto Morelos Catamaran Reef Sail and Snorkel include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 539 listed pickup locations in and around Cancun. Be ready about 60 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is Puerto Morelos Catamaran Reef Sail and Snorkel offered in?

    +

    It is offered in English and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    +

    Is Puerto Morelos Catamaran Reef Sail and Snorkel wheelchair or stroller accessible?

If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to Puerto Morelos Catamaran Reef Sail and Snorkel if the weather is bad?

    +
