Transparent boat ride around Cozumel Island + Snorkel
Overview
From the Carlota pier, a transparent boat made of the most resistant acrylic sets sail to discover the seabed on Cozumel Island, is one of the diving meccas in the world and a great place to snorkel. To these activities we must add the tours in transparent boats that are a window to marine life. It is not just a transparent floor, no: the whole boat is like that!.
To board the boat, passengers must have their life jackets on, wear light clothing and a bathing suit, not have shoes on or large backpacks, and, in times of pandemic, wear a face mask.
You can see corals and even boats, which, for the purpose of environmental conservation, sank to regenerate them. Today these boats are covered with algae, corals and are a refuge for marine fauna.
Halfway through the journey, the boat stops and it is time to jump into the calm waters of the Caribbean Sea and snorkel.

What a great experience. We walked from the cruise terminal. (a little less than a mile) and didn't have any trouble finding the tour. Everybody was very professional. We got on the boat, which is amazing with 11 passengers and 3 crew members so there was plenty of room. Captain David, Luis and Paparazzi Charlie were fantastic. Luis did a great job explaining what we were seeing. He did it in both Spanish and English since my sister and I were the only 2 who spoke english. Paparazzi Charlie was amazing at taking everybody to the bow of the boat and capturing great pictures as well as pictures in the water during the snorkeling. I thought the pictures were priced pretty high, but the quality of them is superb. The only "caution" I would tell people is that the latter to get back in the boat only goes into the water a little way. I'm in my late 40's and not in the best shape but had no problem with it. I can see how some might, but I'm sure the crew would be happy to assist. Certainly not a reason to avoid this trip, just something to be aware of. All in all it was spectacular and not to be missed while in Cozumel!
