What to expect

Swathes of pure white sandy beaches, tropical bird sanctuaries and coral reefs that dazzle beneath the surface of crystal clear water – these are just a few characteristics of Contoy and Mujeres islands. And, on this full day boat trip, you'll hop across the sea from Cancun for a day of snorkelling, sunbathing and wildlife spotting.

Before boarding the boat at Marina MarAzul, you'll be treated to a continental breakfast ready for a day of pure exploration. Then it's across the waves to Isla Contoy, but we'll stop along the way to snorkel in some of the best reefs in Mexico. On the island, your guide will walk you through this protected eco reserve where you'll be able to spot 152 species of tropical birds as well as turtles, stingrays and more.

After a buffet lunch and some time to relax, we'll set sail for Isla Mujeres – a typical Caribbean island – where you can explore at your own pace. Wander through the town, snorkel or sit back on one of the pristine beaches.

Isla Contoy is lovely. Isla Mujeres isn’t. Far too crowded, if there was a trio without going there it would be better.
