What people are saying about Cozumel Reef

So good! The snorkelling was incredible. Beautiful places with helpful, friendly guides. Unbelievably good value for money. The only slight negative was the pick up process. As we were staying on the island and everyone else in the group came on the ferry from the mainland we had to wait for them, which meant pick up was twenty minutes late. Not a problem, but communication could have been better. On the whole I would thoroughly recommend this activity. It was the highlight of our trip.

The reef was not as spectacular like at other locations in Yucatan, but the other stops were awesome. We loved to see sea turtles and the big starfishes. The boat was a bit tiny for the people on board.

The characteristics of the Cristal ship are very poor, you can't really see much. As for the tour and the attention, it was very good.

It was an amazing dive ! Thanks to the guide who was really awesome !

Great, very good treatment and very beautiful reefs
