Q: I'M ON A CRUISE SHIP - CAN
I DO THESE TOURS?
A: Yes. All except the whale sharks and Xel
Ha make great cruise excursions. We also offer a private
tour to Xel Ha that will work for cruise shore excursions
as well.
Q: I HAVE A BIG GROUP, AND
WANT A PRIVATE BOAT CHARTER - CAN YOU HELP?
A: You bet! We can make any of our tours
private, just for your group, or we can customize a
special itinerary just for your occasion. We can
also charter a boat not shown on our website for you.

Q: DO I NEED TO USE BIODEGRADABLE
SUNSCREEN?
A: Yes. All water activities in Playa del Carmen
require that you use only biodegradable sunscreen.
See our
biodegradable sunblock page for more information.
Q: WHERE IS THE BEST SNORKELING
IN PLAYA DEL CARMEN?
A: Well, that depends on who you ask. There
isn't just a "best location" because so many locations are
so beautiful. The snorkeling on the boat tours and
at Yal-Ku will be a bit better than at Xel-Ha, but at Xel-Ha,
you can spend the whole day doing lots of fun activities.
Q: DO I NEED TO KNOW HOW TO
SWIM TO ENJOY SNORKELING?
A: No, but you need to be comfortable in the water.
You'll have a lifejacket or snorkeling vest on, so you won't
sink - you can just doggy paddle around and you'll be fine.
However, if you don't swim, you might want to consider snorkeling
from a beach like at Xel Ha.
