About this experience
A “boat safari” of about 8 hours, discovering the amazing biosphere of Sian Ka’an.
In the Campechen lagoon you'll be surrounded by red and black mangroves, while you'll be looking for crocodiles, birds and even manatees. Entering the Ascension Bay, the challenge will be finding dolphins and sea turtles, swimming free in their natural environments.
You'll see green and yellow brain corals, as well as purple fan corals by doing snorkelling on the Meso-American reef.
Last but not least, you'll be amazed by the colours of the natural pools, where you'll be free to relax and enjoy this unique corner of the ocean.
