Had so much fun!...

Had so much fun! Instructor was attentive and knowledgeable. We saw many fish, a turtle, and a baby nurse shark! The length of the experience was perfect, as we weren’t experienced at all. Overall great experience and would definitely recommend!

Saw a Massive Sea Turtle! Absolute Best Experience

I've gone snorkeling in Cancun many times, but this tour with Wet Set Diving Adventures was by far the best! Our guide was incredible - leading us along the reef, where we saw so many fishes and even spotted a large gray sea turtle. It's just heartbreaking to see how bleached and colorless the coral reefs have become. The team's expertise made this an unforgettable trip. Highly recommend!

If you want the most time in the water, this is the tour!

Was a fabulous experience, we had a lot of fun. The tour is well organized. One of the few tours where there was no sitting around waiting…. A fast short walk to the boat, quickly loaded and we were off! For the 2 hour tour we spent about 1.5 hours in the water, loved it. Christopher is a great guide and very knowledgeable. We saw tons of fish, a turtle, ray, and nurse shark!

Fantastic trip!

Very nice trip with guide Freddy and captain Marco. We were lucky enough to have the trip only with family, so we had all the attention of the guide. They were nice and knowledgeable and the added touch of water and snacks halfway was very nice. Highly recommended!

Amazing Snorkeling day

Wonderful experience from the moment we got there. Super easy checking in next thing you know your on the boat heading out. Guide and Captain super friendly and our guide really made it about snorkeling. The whole time we were in the water we were exploring. Absolutely amazing trip. Would highly recommend.

Fantastic experience

We had a wonderful 2 hour snorkeling experience with Christopher and Jaguar. My husband and I ended up being the only ones on the boat which was lucky because my husband had a full blown panic attack the minute he hit the water. Christopher helped calm him expertly and towed him on the safety raft the entire way - pointing out stingrays, a barracuda and even a rare octopus. We never felt unsafe (just anxiety panic!) and despite pure terror my husband was able to do the entire expedition. Can’t recommend highly enough - once in a lifetime experience

Fantastic snorkeling at Marchioness Reef

We went on three snorkeling trips on our vacation and this one was the best for snorkeling Marchioness. Oh captain “Pollo” was very friendly and our guide, Freddy, was excellent. We really appreciate it, his pace, of snorkeling- slow and tranquil and really enjoying all there was to see. He took us to some beautiful shallow reefs and had a nice calm disposition. It was an excellent value- highly recommended.

Amazing snorkeling, great team, highly recommend!

This snorkel experience was the highlight of our trip! We saw a green sea turtle, eagle ray, nurse shark, barracudas, healthy coral, and a variety of beautiful fish (so grateful for our guide Christopher’s knowledge of the reef!!). The team at Wet Set Diving Adventures did an excellent job of making sure we felt safe and had fun throughout the experience. My partner and I took an uber down to Puerto Morelos from the Cancun hotel zone and felt the meetup point was easy to find. Book this!!!
