Hotel pickup is offered in Cancun’s hotel zone and downtown. Gear, towels, water and lockers are included; bring cash for the $20 dock fee.

“Worth the money! People we’re awesome and friendly. We started off with snorkeling that took approximately 1+hrs and visited 4 snorkeling locations, afterwards parasailing took about 15-20 mins with a magnificent view of cancun, and finally we jet skied for 30 mins! Jet sky is pretty challenging because you need to have balance otherwise you fall but your guide is there to help and is fun! Pics and vids are not included but for snorkeling and parasailing i think its worth the money $100 usd. Your allowed to bring your own camera gear under your own responsibility. In conclusion, 3 hour adventure and highly would recommend it.”
