It was OK but... - The beach was great. Clear water, the tour was awesome but, you must definitely take repellent for mosquitos. Otherwise, they'll eat you alive. NO KIDDING. It's a virgin island so, no drinking water, no running water so the bathrooms were awful. They could find a way to have them clean somehow. You're not allowed to take glass bottles but we saw some people from other tours with beer bottles so, yeah, maybe a little bit more control. Don't let this island become like Isla Mujeres!

Long day but so glad I went - The crew was fun and created a party atmosphere. Be aware of this in case you’re looking for a quiet ride. It’s also a long day. From the time of hotel pickup to return, I was gone 12 hours. Isla Contoy was amazing. The stop in Isla Mujeres made me a little uncomfortable as a solo traveler. Lunch was meh.

Good tour - I really did love this tour. However, there were a few snags that kept it from being a 5 star. The locations were not a problem. In fact, Isla Contoy was beautiful as was snorkeling in the reef. We have 1 hour on Isla Mujeres which was not a lot of time to see much. Additionally, the meeting spot to return to the ship was inside a specific souvenir/jewelry shop. Once inside to see the "meeting spot", we were descended upon to look at jewelry, taste tequila and buy items at a discount. This too away from the 1 hour we had to be back to the boat. The boat ride to the reef and to Isla Contoy was beautiful and was a pretty long ride. I enjoyed the view and the sailing of course. After a wonderful day, it ended on a bit of a sour note. More than half of the boat was English speakers. The boat crew was asked if the (loud) music could include perhaps some familiar English-language party songs like the way over. They said "Sure, we have songs in English as well as French too. Then they ignored the request because the crew was dancing and having fun. Which was all well and good but I paid for us to enjoy the tour. After asking a couple of times and nothing changed, I gave up. I guess as long as the crew has fun, what does it matter if the paying customers have a good experience.

Such an amazing time!! - We had an absolute blast on this excursion!! The tour operators were top notch and great entertainers! Isla Contoy was absolutely breathtaking and we definitely recommend experiencing it! Isla Mujeres was very busy and lots of shops.. lots of people trying to sell you stuff.. not really our scene but it may be yours. We also did snorkeling which was quite a memory. The lunch buffet was decent. The drinks were flowing and the music was pumping on the boat and the tour operators were so fun and made the experience awesome. Also very organized. Definitely highly recommend this tour!! :)

Good experience but Over-Rated - Getting away from mainland shore and the water is cleaner. We did see dolphins and turtles from the tour boat, but once we got in the water, the fish and aquatic life were minimal. (A smaller group may have been better.) And the ‘coral reef’ the guide took us to seemed non-existent. I did see the biggest turtle in the bay at Contoy island, but there were more fish and stingrays in the water at the beach on Isla Mujeres. The trip was OK, and we saw Hermit Crabs and Iguanas on Contoy Island, but spending an afternoon at Playa Norte on Isla Mujeres was more exciting for a fraction of the price.
