The Private 27 ft Sea Ray Boat: A Comfortable and Immaculate Vessel

The tour takes place onboard a well-maintained 27 ft Sea Ray vessel, designed to provide maximum comfort for up to eight guests. The boat’s immaculate condition earns praise, and it features restroom facilities for convenience during the trip. The onboard environment is described as very comfortable, ensuring a relaxed day on the water.

The crew handles all logistics, including snorkeling equipment and refreshments, so guests can focus entirely on enjoying the scenery. The attention to detail by the crew enhances the overall experience, making it ideal for those who appreciate a clean, well-equipped vessel operated by a helpful team.

Flexible Route Customized by the Captain Based on Weather

The itinerary is flexible and tailored to the weather conditions, with the captain selecting between the northern or southern parts of Cozumel for optimal snorkeling and sightseeing. Guests are encouraged to communicate their preferences, as the captain will recommend the best spots accordingly.

The main stops include one or two snorkeling sites in less crowded reefs, chosen to offer pristine marine environments. The boat journey from the marina to these sites takes approximately 40 minutes, giving ample time to enjoy the scenery en route.

Snorkeling in Private Reefs Away From the Crowd

One of the tour’s biggest draws is the chance to swim in reefs with no crowds, experiencing marine life in a peaceful setting. The snorkeling stops are designed to give guests exclusive access to beautiful coral reefs, with the guide explaining local marine species and ensuring everyone knows how to use the equipment.

The reefs are selected to avoid tourist congestion, delivering a more intimate and authentic snorkeling experience. The emphasis on distance from touristy areas means snorkelers can enjoy uninterrupted views of colorful fish and coral formations.

Visiting Playa El Cielo for Starfish Watching

The tour offers a visit to Playa El Cielo, famous for its crystal-clear waters and visible starfish. During this stop, guests can see starfish in their natural habitat and take photos in a tranquil setting. The beach features five kilometers of pristine, virgin shoreline, but access to this private beach is typically reserved for extended, longer tours.

The stop at Playa El Cielo is a highlight for marine enthusiasts and those seeking a peaceful, picture-perfect beach away from crowded tourist spots.

Optional Visit to a Private Beach

For tours lasting 6 to 8 hours, there is an opportunity to extend the experience with a visit to a private, pristine beach. This beach stretches for 5 kilometers of untouched shoreline, offering space for relaxation, sunbathing, or a picnic.

However, the standard 5-hour tour does not typically include this stop, but guests can discuss extension options with the crew to enjoy extra time in paradise.

Gourmet Lunch and Premium Drinks Onboard

Guests enjoy a freshly prepared ceviche lunch made onboard daily by the crew, using fish provided by local fishermen. The ceviche is described as the best and offers a delicious taste of Cozumel’s seafood.

Complementing the meal is an array of premium beverages—including beer, Johnny Walker whiskey, tequila, Matusalem rum, and Stolichnaya vodka—all served aboard. Snacks such as guacamole, seasonal fruit, and veggies are also available throughout the trip.

Snorkeling Equipment and Comfort Onboard

Snorkeling gear is included, allowing guests to explore the reefs comfortably and safely. The equipment is well-maintained and ready for use at each snorkeling stop.

The boat’s amenities — including restroom facilities — help make the entire experience smooth and enjoyable, especially during longer excursions. The crew ensures that everyone feels comfortable and well-attended throughout the trip.

Logistics: Meeting Point and Booking Details

The tour departs from Marina Fonatur in Cozumel, with the meeting point clearly specified. The activity ends back at the same marina, making logistics straightforward.

Guests can expect to confirm their booking within 48 hours, and cancellations are free if made at least 24 hours in advance. The tour is private, exclusively for your group, and service animals are allowed.

What Makes This Tour Stand Out

The combination of private beaches, customized snorkeling, and gourmet onboard lunch distinguishes this tour from more generic options. The impeccable condition of the boat and helpful crew consistently receive praise, especially for their attention to detail and guidance.

The ability to avoid crowds and explore less accessible reefs offers a more authentic, peaceful experience. Plus, the option to extend your time at a private beach adds extra value for those wanting more luxurious relaxation.
