Mexico · BOAT TOURS IN PLAYA DEL CARMEN
Good boat tours in Playa del Carmen fill up weeks ahead and the great ones go first. Below: the 7 to book early, what each includes and how they differ.
ATV through the Maroma jungle plus a guided WaveRunner or speedboat on the Caribbean, with hotel pickup, beach club food, and more.
“ATV ride was great, loved the sand dunes part. Wave runner was good but would have been better if it wasnt raining”
Private 48ft yacht cruise from Puerto Aventuras with INAH reef snorkeling, paddleboards, all-inclusive lunch and drinks, plus optional pickup.
“This crew was so attentive, we felt like we were celebrities. Francisco, the Captain extraordinaire, Ronald, the 5 star chef, and William, the Man with the Plan, Concierge to solve any problems—which there were none! These gents were very knowledgeable of the area and the weather conditions so we felt safe with whatever recommendations they gave us for swimming and snorkeling. The food was freshly made (on the boat) and outstanding! Guacamole, shrimp ceviche and chicken fajitas with some lightly charred tortillas…yum!!! It was a perfect compliment to the unreal scenery around us. 10/10 recommend!”

“This is an incredible excursion. I honestly cannot speak highly enough of Vicki and her crew for taking care of our every need and making sure we had the best experience! We took this trip as part of my best friend's bachelorette trip with 6 women all together, and we felt safe and secure. Water's were choppy that day, as Vicki made sure we were aware of, and our bride got seasick. The crew made sure she was comfortable and gave us options to move to calmer water, which we did and had a blast! The drinks were delicious, especially the Palomas Vicki makes :) and the ceviche was so…”
4-hour private 44-foot catamaran from Puerto Aventuras to In-Ha reef with snorkeling, unlimited drinks, lunch, and chef-made ceviche.
“Overall it was a good experience. There were just a few things that needed improving. There were ants in the kitchen area. I think it is time for extermination. The boat needs a little updating, but still comfortable. The food was good and plenty of it. The staff was nice and made sure we were taken care of. Also, it is important to say that prior to the trip, I communicated with the staff often and they responded promptly and was able to accommodate my requests.”
Pick the day out first, then the town it happens in.
