Before heading back, the tour makes a stop at Isla Mujeres, where you can wander through charming streets and pick up unique souvenirs. A recent review from August 2021 captures the essence of this experience:

Paradise is here. Everything was great, the place, the staff, the food. I highly recommend it. Both islands with good weather.

Afternoon Thrills with Parasailing and Snorkeling

As the afternoon sun casts its golden glow over Punta Sam, it’s time to elevate your adventure with a Parasailing & Snorkeling Combo.
