Guidekin's take

A family version of the multi stop snorkel: a shallow reef, the MUSA sculpture galleries, a turtle area and a shipwreck, with gear, insurance and pickup in Cancún.

Children must be over six with an adult, and the dock fee is paid at check in. 4.68 from 1,120 reviews at €63 per person for 2h 40m.

In our comparison: #13 of 17 in Snorkeling Tours, by rating weighted by review volume (see the comparison).
