About this experience
Take the wheel and drive your own 13-foot speedboat through the mangrove channels of Nichupté Lagoon. No previous boating experience is required, making the experience accessible to first-time drivers while still offering an exciting ride through Cancun’s waterways.
After navigating the mangroves, continue to Punta Nizuc for a snorkeling experience over a shallow coral reef. Explore the clear waters and look for tropical fish and other marine life before heading back through the lagoon.
The combination of driving your own speedboat, navigating mangrove channels, and snorkeling at Punta Nizuc gives you an active way to experience two very different aquatic environments in Cancun.
