Isla Mujeres Snorkeling Tour

Super professional tour with the best team. We saw lots of beautiful colors, fish, stingrays, barracudas, and lots more. It was magical.

The guide is fluent in english and guided us professionally through the tour. Had a really great time.

My 2 twelve-year old daughters and I went out with Enrique (Kiki) on Tuesday, March 11th. Another couple had also arranged to come at that time but I think changed their plans at the last minute, so it was essentially a private tour for us with Kiki. We scheduled the long (3 site) snorkeling trip. The first two stops are the best for seeing a variety of things vs the last stop (the MUSA) which has great statues but not much sea life. In fact all we saw out at MUSA was 2 sting rays....that's it! On the first stop just at the edge of the lagoon we had it to ourselves and saw so many examples of marine sea life -- a couple of types of parrotfish, schools of barracudas and grunts, zebra fish, a lion fish, a sleeping octopus, urchins, lots of other colorful fish, a pufferfish, a frogfish, a dark mottled yellow stingray, a couple of types of angelfish, a flying gurnard, and more. Kiki did such a great job spotting what others would have missed. He also was so nice to grab our Go Pros from us and dive down to get close up pictures and videos for us. Going on a private tour like this was phenomenal compared to the HUGE groups of snorkelers we saw out at El Farito (the small lighthouse). Those groups probably missed most of what was there to be seen. We also did not want to be given drinks or lunch or go on packed catamarans -- we just wanted the joy of snorkeling. Kiki told us the month of August is a good time to return for whale sharks and I'm thinking about that!! I would DEFINITELY arrange to go with Casa del Buceo for snorkeling or diving and would request Kiki again!

Puablo was great to work with as we planned our trip. He is responsive to calls and texts. We did the two shallow reefs and were not disappointed. Lots of fish and the crew was professional, pleasant and accommodating.

Best place to do the whale shark tour! They start early at 7:00, and that's a good thing. We got to the whale sharks, and only the six of us from the boat were in the water. No other boats or people, and more than 10 whale sharks. It was amazing, and we even saw some dolphins. The early start was worth it. At the end, we had some sandwiches, fruit, and beers and soft drinks. Highly recommend Casa del Buceo! We also did two dives, saw amazing sea life, and some nice coral reefs. Lovely place and very nice people work here!

We used Casa Del Buceo for a whale shark snorkeling tour, and then the next day a two tank dive. We got excellent service both days! For the whale sharks, we were able to get in the water with them way more than other boats and companies I saw there. For the scuba diving we actually ended up having a private tour and we’re very well taken care of. I would definitely use this company again! Thanks, especially to Quique for making it so special!

We did 2 spots for 900 pesos each. José the captain even came to pick us up in the morning near the ferry. Luis was very kind and guided us well. A lot of fish. Super clean equipment. Pablo welcoming and puts no pressure. We went around 7am and were alone on the boat. Highly recommend this company :)

From start to finish our party of 9, six adults and thee kids (ages7, 10, and 14) were extremely satisfied. Making a reservation was very easy. We had our own private boat with three guides, a captain, and snorkeling guide and a scuba diver guide. The group did two snorkeling adventures while I did two deep water dives. Snorkeling guide George provided extra care and attention to the youngest in our group. The captain insured that the boat was always near our group while we were in the water. Kile, scuba guide, took me to colorful reefs, underwater statues and the opportunity to view vast amount of sea life. There were no extra hidden costs, the price was very fair and competitive. A wonderful adventure had by all .

I booked the group short snorkeling tour about a week in advance on WhatsApp. Casa Del Buceo was very responsive to my questions before I booked. On the day of the tour, we took the ferry from Puerto Juarez, and one of the salespeople at the ferry told me that all snorkeling tours were canceled due to the wind conditions. I immediately contacted Casa Del Buceo and they messaged me back right away telling me that the harbor was definitely open. They offered to take us earlier in the day than we had booked. Once we got to their location, they made us feel welcome right away and got us fitted with our gear. Turns out we were the only people on the tour, so we got very personalized service! Luis was our guide; he was phenomenal and helped me get comfortable and feel safe in water that had a strong current. I saw SO many different fish! There was a school of sergeant fish around me constantly. Luis was amazing at swimming with me and making sure I saw everything there was to see: starfish, barracudas, fish hidden inside coral, etc. He even went down toward the ocean floor at one point to wake up a fish that was sleeping! Juan, our captain, took us wherever we wanted to go. This tour was well worth the money and the experience.

Hands down Casa Del Buceo is the BEST place to get PADI Open Water Scuba Dive certified, scuba diving, snorkeling, local & deep sea fishing on Isla Muneres!!! Casa Del Buceo also offers additional advanced PADI certification trainings. Just ask for Pablo! He will schedule & set up anything you need!! Pablo & his team will make sure you have fun but are also safe in every thing you do. My friend & I got our PADI Open Water Scuba Dive certification here at Casa Del Buceo because the scuba dive center in Austin, Texas USA just wanted to take our money and did NOT have good instructors. Carlos Gutierrez V was our instructor at Casa Del Buceo and he is excellent!! Carlos is a patient, knowledgeable PADI instructor with over 40 years experience!!! Carlos makes sure you understand how to perform each Open Water skill outside the water before you enter the ocean water at the confined & open water dives in order to safely & confidently obtain your PADI Open Water Scuba Dive Certification. All equipment is provided for you for any training certifications, scuba dive & snorkeling excursions. Following our PADI Open Water certification, my best friend & I did five additional dives with Divemaster Enrique “Kiké” E. Torres Cruz. Kiké is also a great instructor and guide helping us perfect our buoyancy & trim while having fun each dive! We even did a night dive with Kiké which was n amazing experience!! We are so grateful our Airbnb superhost recommended us to go to Pablo’s dive shop at Casa Del Buceo!! Pablo goes above & beyond to help any of his customers with anything they need. During this vacation my group stayed at 2 different Airbnbs because the first one was booked for the dates I wanted. My group included my best friend & my elderly grandmother. Pablo’s team helped her in & off the boat so she could watch us snorkel & go deep sea fishing with the Lalos and also kept her company at the marina while we did our scuba dive training. My group had A LOT of luggage. Pablo had his nephews take his truck to help load & unload our luggage when we switched airbnbs and then again when we switched to a hotel when my group extended our vacation for one additional week so we could continue diving with Pablo’s team at Casa Del Buceo!! :) Pablo even helped us search for a 3rd Airbnb when we decided to extended our vacation. Finally, my group decided to book an all-inclusive stay at Hotel Beló (which is a great hotel) so my elderly grandma could feel comfortable while my friend & I continued to do additional dives at Casa Del Buceo. Pablo, himself, came to the hotel with his truck to take our luggage from the hotel to the ferry when my group left the island. I know for a fact no other person would have done this for my group!! It was such a great blessing to meet Pablo & his team at Casa Del Buceo to get PADI Open Water certified, scuba dive day & night, snorkel, & go deep sea fishing!!! Pablo & his team took great care of me, my best friend, & my elderly grandmother. We will be returning soon to Casa Del Buceo on Isla Mujeres to continue our scuba dive adventures!! I highly recommend you contact Pablo at Casa Del Buceo to schedule your underwater adventures on Isla Mujeres!!! Casa Del Buceo is a MUST experience!!!
