Mangrove Jungle Speedboat Experience

About this experience

Begin your adventure with a check-in at the marina Aquaworld and get ready for a exhilarating ride. Before boarding your speedboat, receive basic instructions and learn safety signals from your guide.

Drive your two-seat speedboat and follow your guide through Nichupté lagoon's calm waters. After navigating around mangrove forests, reach the open waters of the Caribbean. Lower the anchor with the aid of your guide and put your snorkel gear to get a closer look at the reef before diving in.

As you snorkel on the Punta Nizuc reef you will see why this area is renowned for its abundance of sea life, fish and impressive coral reef formations. Jump back to your boat after admiring sea corals and lots of sea life and return to your starting point with another breezy trip through the lagoon.
