You will be accompanied all the time by a local guide who will help you at all times
We take care of everything you need for the snorkeling activity

Before entering the activity, you will be given a brief explanation of the importance of akumal protection and the areas where we can swim for the conservation of the area.

We will enter our tour from the beach. It is important to mention that Akumal Bay is a shallow area so first we will reach the grassland area where we will find the sea turtles mostly are of the species white or green turtle although sometimes we will also be able to observe the Carey turtles, as we will visit part of the coral akumal barrier where we can observe a variety of tropical fish and sometimes we will observe rays or barracudas.

In our service area you will have lockers, bathrooms and showers for your convenience.

If you wish at the end of our activity you can stay on the beach to enjoy the day.

Top10Adventures® wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Top10Adventures® over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
