Stop 1

During our trip to Cozumel Island, we will explore some of the most breathtaking coral reef locations in the world. One of the highlights of our tour is a sanctuary for green sea turtles, where we’ll have the chance to calmly snorkel and observe them in their natural habitat.

Another stop on our journey is El Cielo—which means “Heaven” in Spanish—a stunning site known for its crystal-clear waters and the many vibrant red and orange starfish resting on the immaculate white sand.

Towards the end of the excursion, we’ll head to El Cielito, or “Little Heaven,” a natural sandbank surrounded by transparent waters. Here, we can unwind and enjoy freshly prepared drinks and snacks before returning to the port as the sun sets.
