Cozumel Reef Snorkel with Playa Mia

This was the absolute best snorkeling experience. The crew was great and the ride to the reef was beautiful. We went to three spots. Each was as breath taking as the next. If you are snorkeling in Mexico choice Playa Mia in Cozmel. You will have a once in a lifetime experience.

the staff is very friendly and helpful. they made the logistics very easy. You will see the staff after you get off the cruise. the downside is that the sea was very rough on that day and we had a bad sea sick. There is also not much to see except some stingray and star fish. Not recommended for kids.

We went on this excursion in October 2021. At first we were a bit worried because the meeting point was a bit of a walk from where Carnival ships dock and there was a van ride and another wait at the ferry pier, but once we got going on the Aqua Dream catamaran the boat crew made sure we were comfortable and we had a scenic sail back past our ship and towards the southern end of the island. Each of the snorkeling stops was a completely different and breathtaking scene, from the deep reefs with barracuda and turtles to shallow beaches with giant starfish. We only were able to have a limited lunch at Playa Mia but it tasted delicious after a few hours in the sun and snorkeling. Now I am looking forward to visiting Cozumel and visiting Playa Mia again!

Except for waiting almost 2 hours from when we ported and leaving for the tour, this was a wonderful excursion. We have used this tour group last year when we were at a resort in Mexico and they did not disappoint then or this time. Would definitely book through them again!

We have been to Cozumel many times and it's always a wonderful visit. The people are so kind and friendly and the scenery and culture is so beautiful. We have used Shore Excursion Group many times and they never disappoint. We had a great time on the excursion. They took us to multiple snorkel spots and we saw lots of sea life and then even went to a nice resort, had a great meal, open bar and ocean toys what more could you ask for. Thanks for the great time time!

We went to 3 different stops to snorkel in November 2021.I’m a very good swimmer having swim competively in high school. Although that was quite awhile ago I still am a pretty good swimmer. When they required us to wear life jackets I was somewhat skeptical but complied. Our first stop was out in tge Ocean and the swells showed that one definitely needed the life jackets. After the fun and enthralling snorkeling we had a wonderful time at the Playa Mia resort, which we hope to visit solely next time in Cozumel. Wonderful food and amenities. The snorkeling guides were wonderful and fun and provided great rum punch.. Highly recommend but be prepared for strong water swells and a workout.

This was my 1st time snorkeling and I fell in love with it! The reason for 4 stars was because after 2 amazing snorkel locations, we were dropped off in shallow sandy water for about 20 minutes and there was nothing really to do there. I'd much prefer to have an additional 20 minutes snorkeling or actually at the beach where we had lunch. Rum punch and margaritas flowed freely on the return trip. Yum!

This is my very first time at this! The crew was great translating between English and Spanish, so no one would be left out or misinformed as to what is required. I cannot swim and the guide was right by my side until I felt confident to let go and he stayed closed by even though my husband was also by my side. There were 3 areas to snorkel; the 1st and most beautiful was the best you see all colors and various fish around; 2nd was just “all-star fish” and could have been the shortest stop; then the 3rd where you were able to go in standing clear beautiful waters to take picture and have some sting rays swim around you. Then back on board you get some drinks and taken to the spot of lunch. Lunch was delicious, you get 3 options of meat and all you can drink. The drinks are pretty STRONG I would recommend this one!

This excursion was fantastic. We received a paid taxi ride from our port to the boat that was taking us to go snorkeling. When we arrived on the boat the crew was nice and informative. They also had snacks and drinks. Both snorkels were amazing and the staff was great for first time snorkelers. They also each lasted about 25 mins. After the second snorkel we got back onto the boat where we were told we could have as much rum punch, margaritas, and beer as we wanted. They also got some of the boat to dance and have a good time to the music that was playing. The final boat ride took us to a nice resort where we had a provided buffet and another open bar. They also had a water park and a nice beach with things like paddle boats and snorkeling that you could do there as well. We had about an hour and a half at the resort before we needed to catch our last provided taxi ride back to the port where our ship was. We arrived back at the ship with plenty of time to spare.

We enjoyed the boat, snorkeling and personnel on board. This was a great excursion that anyone would love.

Guide was good and thorough. Very safe and comfortable. Had drinks after snorkelling. Then went to Playa Mia where we could have had more time but a bit rushed. Food was ok but not great

This is the 2nd time I've booked this tour, and both times were great. The crew were friendly and knowledgeable, and the first snorkeling stop was great. I would have preferred 1 longer snorkeling stop and then go directly to Playa Mia than have 2 short stops. Also, both times I've booked this there were passengers that were very late and everyone else was made to wait at the dock. We've always been warned that the tour will leave without us if we aren't on time, so I'm not sure why so many passengers who are on time are made to wait for a few people that don't bother to show up on time (and not even close to being on time).
