An afternoon on and in the water - This excursion was spot on if you are looking for an afternoon on the water. It was relaxing and fun! Well poured cocktails and a nice light lunch. Absolutely loved cruising on the water and swimming in the middle of the ocean on a sand bar. Absolutely beautiful! Thank you! I would totally do this again!

A great time away form the crowds and bustle of other excursions - We started out with a little bit of a bumpy ride from Cancun's Hotel Zone, but in a very nice, air conditioned van that (since we were the first to pile into) we controlled the music for. Once you get to the dock, you will pay a US$15 pp dock fee (which is clearly stated in the excursion description). Once we took off, all our troubles were (literally) miles away. The captain and his crew were wonderful, funny, and so hospitable to all on board. I borugh extra food thinking we wouldn;t get much, but the provided lunch was also lovely. The drinks were flowing and everyone onboard got along and mingled. We "dropped anchor" after about an hour of sailing out at the sandbar (which is more so just a place where most can stand in the water—not an actual sandbar where you're entirely above water). The weather and water were fantastic, and we couldn't have asked for a better excursion. The ride back to the hotel was just as comfortable as the ride in. Would highly suggest this excursion to anyone looking to get away from the typical "taxi service" to and from Isla Mujeres—this is much more about being on the boat and in the ocean. It was fab!

Great Afternoon Trip!! - We had an amazing time on this trip! The 3 gentleman that ran the boat and took care of all the Guests were so hospitable and funny. They explained the entire experience and were very attentive with service and beverages. The light lunch served was perfect to have out on the water. The entire experience was very relaxing and enjoyable.

Beautifully clear aqua water!! - The water, boat, and crew were amazing....My husband and I both got seasick. One other lady did too. it was just rough water the day we went. I can't say enough good about how well the crew took care of us!! I should have taken Dramamine! I felt like we were really a pain for them, but they never acted like it...they were all so helpful!!
