    The place is as beautiful as they advertise. The full day excursion is well organized in every detail. Jessica and Ursula are fantastic guides (and Axel is an excellent partner): very prepared, attentive to each member of the group and super nice! They made the day truly unforgettable. Thank you

Sian Ka'an Trip

At the time of booking, you can choose between 2 different options. Both include pickup and drop off at your hotel, a boat ride, and entrance to the Sian Ka'an Biosphere Reserve. Below, are the itineraries for the 2 options:

Half-Day Tour - Sian Ka’an Discovery

On this half-day tour, we'll travel by speedboat through the different lagoons of Sian Ka'an. We'll sail along a thin strip of sand lined with beaches, lagoons, and lush coastal vegetation until we reach Boca Paila. Here, the wetlands meet the sea and many manatees and crocodiles inhabit this area.

Upon arrival, if the weather is favorable, you can snorkel in the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef to admire the colorful corals and fish that live here. Then, we'll enjoy a delicious meal on board. After lunch, we'll disembark at a nearby beach where you'll have an hour of free time to relax.

Finally, we'll return to the starting point after 5 hours of activity.

Important: this option does not operate on Wednesdays.

If you feel like enjoying a more complete experience, this is the option for you. In addition to exploring the lagoons of Sian Ka'an such as Boca Paila, we'll see cays full of endemic birds and observe the most beautiful creatures of the Caribbean Sea, you might even spot some dolphins and turtles. Would you like to discover the underwater ecosystem more closely? You'll have the opportunity to put on your snorkeling equipment and dive into the crystal-clear waters of this natural environment.

Afterwards, we'll go to the sandbank called by the locals the natural pool, located in front of some beautiful reefs. Finally, we'll arrive at Punta Allen, a paradise corner par excellence of Quintana Roo. There we'll enjoy a magnificent Caribbean lunch with tortillas and rice.
