Starting Point and Logistics
Your adventure begins at Marina Albatros, located at Km 3.5 on Blvd. Kukulcan in Cancun’s Zona Hotelera. The check-in process is straightforward, but be prepared for a $15 dock fee payable on-site. This fee covers the use of the dock facilities and is a standard charge for boat trips in the region.
Boarding takes place around noon, with a departure time of 12:00 pm. The boat itself is a catamaran designed for adults, accommodating up to 40 guests, which strikes a nice balance between social energy and comfort. The group size ensures you’re part of a lively crowd without feeling crowded or rushed.
The Sailing Experience
Once aboard, you’re treated to a seven-hour window of Caribbean scenery, breezy sails, and good company. The boat is equipped with all the necessary gear, including snorkel masks and fins—weather permitting, of course. Travelers report that the sailing itself is a highlight, offering sweeping views of the coast and ocean that are often only available from a boat.
We loved the way the crew keeps the atmosphere upbeat with music and friendly service. The open bar features local spirits and mixers, helping everyone relax and enjoy the ride. As one traveler put it, “Great staff, excellent service, extra fun,” highlighting how the team’s energy adds to the overall enjoyment.
Snorkeling: A Brief but Nice Touch
Snorkeling is included, but it’s a short activity, with some travelers wishing for a longer underwater adventure. The gear is provided, and if the weather cooperates, you might see some lively marine life or colorful reefs. The reviews suggest that this part of the trip is more of a quick dip than a deep dive, but the convenience and ease make it worthwhile.
Arriving at Isla Mujeres and Beach Club Fun
After sailing and snorkeling, you’ll drop anchor at a beach club that’s exclusively for adults. Here, the party continues with a DJ spinning tunes and plenty of drinks at the open bar—both on the beach and at the club. The buffet lunch adds a satisfying touch, with some travelers mentioning it as “fabulous value,” especially considering the inclusions.
The beach club is a great spot for photos, lounging, or simply soaking up the lively atmosphere. Many guests took the opportunity to explore the beach, hop into a golf cart for a quick tour, or even indulge in a massage—activities mentioned in some reviews as part of their Isla Mujeres experience.

What Sets This Tour Apart?

One of the main draws is the all-inclusive nature; everything from snorkeling gear to food and drinks is managed for you, removing the stress of organizing individual activities. The DJ and adult-only environment create a lively, party-like vibe that sets it apart from more subdued boat trips.
Travelers’ reviews consistently praise the value, with comments like “Fabulous value” and “Great crew,” emphasizing how well run and enjoyable the experience is. The crew’s friendly attitude makes a big difference, turning what could be a typical tourist trap into a memorable outing.
Considerations for Your Trip
While the snorkeling might be brief, many guests found the overall experience more than worthwhile. The $20 government fee is an added expense you should budget for. The tour is primarily designed for relaxed, social travelers who want to enjoy Cancun’s lively side, rather than those seeking intense adventure or tranquility.
