Do you think you’ve seen everything? Looking for something new?

This tour was created by Total Snorkel Cancun’s owner. He describes himself as a snorkel fan and marine life lover. After keeping this tour as secret only for friends and family, he’s decided to share his hidden treasure!

Our Open waters and virgin reefs snorkeling tour in Cancun is divided in 3 areas or stops:

Itinerary

Hotel Pick-up:

Start your experience with a prompt and comfortable hotel pick-up on air-conditioned vans.

Check-In:

Briefing:

Short but useful briefing on shallow waters. Learn to wear the equipment properly, swim with fins, breathe through the snorkel, defog the mask, and other useful tips that will make your experience much more enjoyable. Learn more about our briefing here.

First area:

Enjoyed over our secret virgin reef. On this tour we’ll get into giant coral formations, coral caves, crevices and huge white sand pits. An authentic playground for real snorkeling fans!.

Second area:

A different spot of the same rare, secluded and unique reef. See a magical array of marine life with our dedicated and knowledgeable guides. Free dive on this natural 18-24 ft deep wonderland.

Third area:

Enjoyed over a full-of-sea-life shipwreck. The shipwreck is full of fish and colorful corals. Surrounded by crystal clear waters and white sand, you’ll feel like you are swimming in a natural pool!

Drop-off:

Back on the marina, after taking a freshwater shower, and watching your pictures, the van will be waiting for you to take you back to your hotel.

Before going further, we must mention previous experience is needed. You don’t need to be an expert, but feeling comfortable breathing through the snorkel and being a good swimmer helps to have a more enjoyable experience (no need to be Michael Phelps). If you’re more like a beginner you might want to check our Reef, Musa, Turtle Encounter And Shipwreck Cancun Snorkeling Tour.

We will always swim in the same direction as the sea current (not against it). We like doing your life easy; you’ll feel you are on a “lazy river”.

More details

Get ready to become speechless with this tour. We’ll swim among bigger and special fish such as big barracudas, yellow snapper and black grouper (species you’ll never find in shallow waters). Turtles and eagle stingrays are also found here!

We'll help you to improve your snorkeling skills with some cool tips! According to our experience the best way to do snorkeling and enjoying a reef is swimming as a dolphin, and we'll teach you how!

Yes, you’ve read it right, as a dolphin. We don’t mean swimming at 20 miles per hour or jumping 20 feet above the water's surface, we mean snorkeling on a “sine waveform”.

The secret to get the best from the reef is to get your eyes as close as possible to the coral, colors and details are magnified on a way you won’t believe. We’ll invite you (and teach you how) to take a big air sip, hold your breath and coming to the bottom where all the magic happens! Never done that before, don’t worry, your in the best's hand!
