# Puerto Morelos Secret Sandbar Catamaran Sail

**Guidekin's take:** A short sail from Puerto Morelos to a shallow sandbar in a protected lagoon, waist deep most of the year, so children and non swimmers can float on mats while drinks flow and a light lunch is served. Park and dock fees are paid on site; hotel transport is a separate option. 4.7 from 417 reviews at €127 per person for 4h.

In our comparison: #11 of 16 in Isla Mujeres Catamaran & Sailing, by rating weighted by review volume (table below).

## Overview

Sail aboard catamaran La Bonita to our secret sandbar. After a short sail we reach our destination a shallow sandbar made up of soft sand and in a protected lagoon with crystal clear calm water. At a depth of 3 to 4 feet most of the year this is ideal an ideal spot for kids and non-swimmers. Enjoy a light lunch before leisurely sailing back across the protected waters of the Puerto Morelos lagoon.
