Cruise over breathtaking turquoise waters and take in the stunning views while relaxing on deck. After enjoying the sea breeze, jump into the crystal-clear ocean for a snorkeling experience at the world-famous Underwater Museum of Art (MUSA), an incredible underwater gallery featuring human-sized sculptures surrounded by colorful marine life. Once back on board, enjoy a refreshing open bar to complement the experience as you continue your journey toward Isla Mujeres.
Upon arrival to Dolphin Discovery Isla Mujeres, you will be welcomed to a serene tropical setting designed to provide the ideal environment for both guests and marine mammals. Your experience begins with an informative orientation led by a marine specialist, who will teach you about dolphin behavior, anatomy, physiology, and conservation. Gain a deeper understanding of these intelligent creatures before entering the water for your deep-water interaction.
Enjoy a friendly dolphin kiss, a comforting dolphin hug, and a heartwarming eye-to-eye connection that invites a sense of trust and wonder. Take part in the unique Heart to Heart moment, where you will have the rare chance to feel the dolphin’s heartbeat, and experience Ocean Echo, listening closely to the dolphin’s natural sonar. These interactions are designed not just to entertain, but to inspire awe and appreciation for the incredible abilities and emotional intelligence of dolphins.
Finally, explore the charming downtown area of Isla Mujeres during a guided shopping tour where you can stroll through local boutiques, pick up souvenirs, enjoy the island’s relaxed ambiance, and admire its Caribbean charm. Once finished, board the catamaran once again for your return to Cancún, where the crew will keep the energy high with music and drinks from the open bar as you enjoy the final stretch of your island-day escape.
