Lia – Switzerland

We had amazing guides with us who made the day as fun as possible. We saw all the animals except the crocodiles. Snorkeling could have been longer for the money you pay but the transport food and sandbank stay where great

I

Absolutely great. Our guide, Martin, was very knowledgeable, kind and caring of the environment. We saw a lot and learned a lot. Felt always taken care of and expectations were set and met every time. We highly recommend the tour - we were also lucky as we saw crocodiles, turtles, manatees, dolphins and more. The only caveat is the Punta Allen - I wish they did something about the trash that washed up on the shore, it’s really bad and ruins the experience of a nice beach.

Full description

Punta Allen is a picturesque and perfect place to park yourself on a boat tour. Here explore the local lagoons and come face to face with the incredible wildlife of this region. You'll have the chance to see beautiful birds and maybe even the opportunity to see wild dolphins and sea turtles that live in these waters.

On the tour, also stop at the 2nd largest coral reef in the world, where you can jump out of the boat and enjoy a pleasant snorkel adventure (subject to sea conditions). You'll be amazed at the colors of this very healthy coral reef and the varieties of fish are absolutely stunning. The reef system is home to more than 65 species of stony coral, 350 species of mollusk, and more than 500 species of fish.

Then, head to the beach, where the picture-perfect sandbar awaits. Here enjoy a delicious Caribbean lunch of fresh fish and fruit before heading back out to explore a bit more.

The biodiversity of the Yucatan Peninsula is essential and the aim is to share this passion with you and teach you how you can all work to keep this great natural land safe for future generations. It became a World Heritage Site in 1987 and you'll understand why.

Ryan – United KingdomDecember 5, 2024 – Verified booking
Great experience, enjoyed the boat ride and it was great to see manatees, dolphins, crocodiles, sea turtles, pelicans and more in their native environment. The guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. The conditions were not good for snorkelling unfortunately but we enjoyed stopping for a swim in the shallow water. The lunch was enjoyable overall, I recommend going for the Mayan fish option though as my partner had the chicken which was a bit bland in comparison. You can choose to try the lobster as well for a small extra cost, which I would recommend!
