8-Hour Private 50' Azimut 2-Stop Tour to Cozumel Beach w/Food, Drinks & Snorkel

This is a private, 8-hour yacht charter on a 50-foot Azimut that crosses the Caribbean from Puerto Aventuras to the island of Cozumel, with two stops for snorkeling. The boat is for your group alone and the operator describes the tour as customizable. You are greeted with a welcome drink, and the day includes lunch, an open bar and snorkel gear.

The yacht leaves the Puerto Aventuras marina and crosses to Cozumel. On the way you can troll fish from the yacht; you are free to help reel in a catch, which can be prepared fresh on board. The listing describes the first anchorage in two slightly different ways: the description names Playa Palancar, a secluded beach with clear aquamarine water that is good for snorkeling the reef, while the itinerary also mentions the El Cielo area in the south of Cozumel, accessible only by boat, with waist-deep turquoise water.

Lunch is served on board or, if you prefer, on the beach under the shade of a palapa. The menu includes freshly made guacamole, shrimp and fish ceviche and grilled cheeseburgers, with a cold beer, margarita or refreshment of your choice. The inclusions list an open bar with unlimited alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks, and the itinerary names tequila, whiskey, rum, vodka, beer, bottled water, soft drinks and juice.

After lunch the yacht moves to another nearby reef for a second snorkeling stop, where you can get close to tropical fish, coral and, according to the description, sea turtles. One version of the itinerary mentions the Colombia Shallows and Palancar reefs, with the crew grilling cheeseburgers while you snorkel. On the way back you watch the sunset over the Riviera Maya coastline before returning to Puerto Aventuras.

The tour suits families and groups that want a private day on the water. It is suitable for all physical fitness levels, infants must sit on an adult's lap, and service animals are allowed. The boat can be accessed by wheelchair, but water activities are limited unless safety requirements are met. The minimum drinking age is 18, and children and young adults of 18 years of age and under must be accompanied by at least one adult. Vegetarian, vegan and other dietary options are available if you tell the operator when booking.

Included are towels, snorkel gear and life jackets, and on-board restrooms. The description adds fishing gear, a free underwater camera and floats. Gratuities, private transportation and the dock fee are not included. The listing gives no meeting point, so confirm where to board with the operator.
