# 2-Hour Tulum Snorkel: Sea Turtles, Stingrays & Ruins from the Sea

**Guidekin's take:** Snorkel a wild turtle and stingray habitat and a reef in front of the Tulum ruins, with views from the sea. A guide joins you in the water, and snorkel gear and life jackets are included; children must be at least five, and private transport is excluded. 4.63 from 350 reviews at €31 per person for 2h.

In our comparison: #25 of 27 in Tulum Ruins Tours, by rating weighted by review volume (table below).

## Overview

This was the very first tour we created, and it is still our guests' favorite. After years exploring the Riviera Maya, we chose the two places we love most: a sanctuary where sea turtles and stingrays live in the wild, and a stretch of the reef in front of the Tulum ruins full of color. Our local team shares them every day with the same care we would give our own family: small groups on each boat, a guide in the water with you, and a deep respect for the animals and the reef.
