Isla Marietas Catamaran Tour! Full Day Nature Adventure

This full-day catamaran trip to the Marietas Islands is listed at about 480 minutes, with roughly six hours of round-trip boat transportation and around two hours at the island. It combines water activities, meals and a lively return trip on a two-floor catamaran.

The day begins at the marina with a check-in with the staff. Once on board, the crew gives a welcome and explains the safety measures. After that, breakfast is served on board while you sail toward the islands and enjoy the sea views.

When you reach the reef, you can choose your activity: paddle boarding, kayaking or snorkeling, all with full equipment. The snorkel gear includes a mask, tube and life jacket. The waters are described as warm and clear.

Lunch takes place at Nopalera Beach: a hamburger with a side of shrimp and a salad bar. The guides also offer the option of a tour of the island to learn about its nature and history.

On the way back the party starts. The open bar, which is available only after Isla Marietas, opens along with music, karaoke and more.

The tour suits travelers who want a day of activity and social time. It is listed as suitable for all fitness levels, though not recommended for people with spinal injuries or poor cardiovascular health, or for pregnant travelers. Bring your swimsuit, towels and extra clothes, wear comfortable clothes and shoes, and use biodegradable sunscreen and insect repellent. A dock fee of 3 USD per person and the SEMARNAT and CONANP bracelet of 10 USD per person are not included and are paid in cash only. The listing gives no meeting point, so confirm it when you book.
