The Snorkel with Turtles from Bahia Principe experience takes you to the heart of Akumal, one of the Riviera Maya’s most iconic snorkeling destinations. Known for its calm bay and rich marine biodiversity, Akumal is the perfect place to encounter sea turtles in their natural environment.

Your professional guide will provide clear safety instructions before you begin. Then, slip into the turquoise waters and let the adventure start. As you snorkel, you’ll spot gentle turtles grazing on seagrass, surrounded by colorful fish that thrive in this protected marine ecosystem.


A Stress-Free Half-Day Adventure

This excursion is designed to fit perfectly into your vacation schedule. With departures twice daily, you can enjoy the experience in the morning or afternoon. Within minutes of leaving Bahia Principe, you’ll arrive at Akumal, maximizing your time in the water rather than on the road.

This tour combines safety and fun, making it suitable for both first-time snorkelers and experienced adventurers. The calm waters of Akumal Bay make it a family-friendly activity as well.
