jrsully Posted April 18, 2008 #1 Share Posted April 18, 2008 What is my best option for snorkeling half day and beach the rest of the day? I don't want to go on the crowded cruise trip. Eagle Ray Divers was suggested, but if their half day trip is the same as I could get from land, I don't want to waste the money. Anyone with experience here? I've heard Dzul Ha is the best snorkeling, and can be reached by land. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There may be a couple of resorts that have good snorkeling from shore, but I haven't found them , yet. To see any good coral you will have to take a boat trip but you can see lots of fish and maybe a moray, lobster or octopus at either of these places.

bolt Posted April 19, 2008 #3 Share Posted April 19, 2008 We just got back and used Papa Hogs. It was one of the best things on our trip. We loved it. Kim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magic City Cruiser Posted April 22, 2008 #4 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Find contact information on Rosi and Mystic Snorkel at www.cozumelmycozumel.com. It's a four hour snorkel excursion, three reefs including the world famous Palancar. Her boat is small, holds 10 people but I think she will rent other larger boats for larger groups. Just tell her what you are looking for. AND, she'll drop you off at Paradise Beach on the way back for a great lunch and you'll get back to port in time for a smidgen of shopping!

jrsully Posted April 22, 2008 Author #6 Share Posted April 22, 2008 We're using EagleRay for a half day. Great customer service in booking the trip, and I believe we'll have the boat to ourselves that day. Just what we were looking for. I guess we'll hit Paradise Beach for lunch, and go from there. Thanks for the advice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had a great time.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrsully Posted April 22, 2008 Author #8 Share Posted April 22, 2008 I'm looking forward to it. We'll snorkel on the guided trip from 10 to Noon, then have the rest of the afternoon to enjoy the beach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
