Get your sail time, water people! - Awesome time out on the water! Went in the afternoon so the water at the reef and some transit was a little choppy, especially for snorkeling, but I was just there to enjoy some boat time anyway. 😄 Delighted we got to do a little sailing on the way back (never seen wing on wing on a catamaran, amazing đŸ„°), and the second stop in a protected marina was fantastic for a relaxing swim. Very attentive and friendly captain and staff, thanks to Celine, David, Paula and (uno mas, olvido lo siento!). Light snacks and an impressively large sandwich. Plenty of drinks. If you're picky about food just bring your own, don't kill the vibe complaining about options or fixings, ugh. There weren't a lot of details in the description, so if you need to know, the Cat departs from Puerta Aventura. About 4 hours on the water. Reef and Marina swim stop but I suspect the stops might be weather dependent. Super nice catamaran, and we were on the smaller one! Thanks again, team, this was a great trip!!

Catamaran and snorkeling - Had a great time and the guides made it even better. Drinks and food were great and the catamaran ride was amazing. Water was a little rough on our trip which made snorkeling a little harder, but overall a great experience!

Ok but be prepared for lots of people - The boat was beautiful and we met nice people. However the number of passengers was at least 70 when the advertisement claimed only 30 would be allowed. The boat was very crowded and the snorkeling group too large.

Complete waste of time and money - I booked this tour in advance to avoid the stress of planning while in Playa Del Carmen, but it ended up being the biggest headache of my trip. The Issues were- Contradictory Timing: The listing stated an 8:30 AM start. I called the day before to confirm and was told to wait for "pickup details." Despite this, they emailed after our call shifting the pickup to 7:30 AM. Because I relied on the original listing and our phone conversation, I missed the van. Poor Definitions: When I called to clarify, staff claimed "pickup details" meant the time had changed. If the time changes, that needs to be communicated explicitly, not buried in an email sent at the eleventh hour. Failed Second Attempt: We rescheduled for the next day. I was outside by 7:20 AM, only to be told at 7:40 AM—after I called them—that the dock was closed due to wind. While weather is out of their control, the lack of proactive notification meant I wasted another morning waiting on a curb instead of enjoying my limited 3-day vacation. I have requested a full refund of my $150 as no services were provided. With thousands of operators in the area, I highly recommend booking with someone who prioritizes clear, proactive customer communication.

Disappointed - My excursion was canceled due to rough waves and high winds. No communication was provided to inform us, I was extremely disappointed because we waited outside our hotel for 45 minutes, not to mention we lost a half a day of our valuable time.
