Live a unique experience in Akumal swimming with turtles in their natural habitat, a unique experience in the Mexican Caribbean to observe turtles, fish, and rays with a 100% local guide.

PRICE:

 

Upon arrival at the meeting point, you will be attended to by the tour guides who will accompany you on the tour. We will walk two minutes to reach the national park, where you will be given bracelets for access, which allow you to use the bathrooms, showers, changing rooms, and lockers (a 100-peso deposit is required).

We will proceed to the equipment area where you will be provided with all the necessary equipment, such as masks, new snorkels, and life jackets.

We will enter the sea on foot with the snorkeling equipment we provide, and the tour guide will give you instructions for the activity as well as the rules to follow throughout the tour. You will be taught how to use the life jacket, mask, and snorkel tube before starting to swim.

The tour begins by swimming in the beautiful bay of Akumal, visiting the official swimming circuit established by CONANP, within a protected natural area. During the tour, you will have the opportunity to observe marine organisms that inhabit the reef.

Even if it is your first time swimming, we will help you swim with a life ring that you can hold on to for added confidence. We guarantee your entertainment and the sighting of turtles. You will always be accompanied by a trained and certified professional.

At the end of the activity, you can enjoy the rest of the day in the protected national park, making use of its facilities, which include palapas, showers, and restrooms.

Photos depend on visibility. We try to capture the best memories possible, but sometimes the sea conditions are not ideal.
