Water taxi with snorkeling to Paradise Beach?

[Repeates]

Our family will be there in June and plan to go to Paradise Beach.  Is there a water taxi that can take us there from the port, with possibly a snorkel stop?  If not, is there a boat that we can get on from the pier at Paradise Beach that could take us out to some better snorkeling?

Never heard of a water taxi that goes to Paradise beach.

You may be confusing this with Roatan.  There is a water taxi from West End to West Bay in Roatan.  And there is a Paradise Beach in West Bay, where you can snorkel (nice spot BTW).  However, there is no water taxi from either Roatan pier to West Bay/West End.

 

And snorkeling at Paradise Beach, Cozumel is no-existent.

You could taxi to the Money Bar for good snorkelling from the shore.  Then, after an hour or two and some drinks and snacks grab another cab to Paradise Beach for the rest of the day.

I was referring to Paradise Beach ( beach club/restaurant) in Cozumel.  I wasn't sure if we could get off the ship in Cozumel and get on a smaller snorkel tour boat that would take us to a reef, and then on to drop us off at Paradise Beach.  I have read that there is a boat pier at Paradise Beach and parasailing boats pull up to it,  just wondering if anyone has taken a snorkel boat out from there.

But, thank you for the info about Roatan!

When we were at PB in Feb there were no snorkel tours offered, and snorkeling from the shore was poor.  That's why I suggested you go somewhere with good snorkeling first, like the Money Bar, and then relax at Paradise Beach for the rest of the day.

We went with Mystic Snorkel.  Booked them ahead. Took a cab to their boat at the marina. Met the guys who took us to several good stops.  Dropped us off at PB after.  Took a cab back to the cruise terminal that evening.  It was a good day but my wife, who doesn’t snorkel, went with us on the boat and later told me next time she would just meet up with us at PB.
