Description

Not all sea life adventures require a snorkel. This relaxing ride gives you panoramic underwater views through a glass floor as the reef teems with color below. Glide over vibrant coral and tropical fish while enjoying the breeze and unbeatable Caribbean blues.

If you're curious about Cancun’s reef life but not keen on jumping in, this glass-bottom boat cruise is your perfect match. The 100% transparent boat lets you see everything beneath you—from the delicate fans of coral to the sudden shimmer of silvery fish. It’s not a peek—it’s a full view, uninterrupted and up close.

The tour is quick and easy, making it an ideal activity for families with small children, non-swimmers, or anyone wanting a more relaxed pace. You’ll cruise over shallow, clear waters where visibility is at its best, drifting past patches of reef that play host to angelfish, sergeant majors, and sometimes even rays. Guides onboard will help point out the different species and share quick, engaging insights about the reef’s ecology—just enough to deepen your appreciation without bogging you down.

The boat itself is modern and comfortable, with cushioned seats and a shaded deck so you can enjoy the ride without worrying about sunburn or sea spray. And with departures throughout the day, it’s easy to fit into your schedule whether you’re on a shore break or exploring downtown Cancun. It’s a simple, beautiful way to experience the Caribbean—no gear, no hassle, just pure reef magic right below your feet.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is transportation from my hotel included?
This tour starts at the pickup point in the Hotel Zone (Open in **Google Maps**) so you'll need to walk, skip or catch a cab/shuttle there. The meeting point is on the south-west side of the main boulevard facing the Nichupte Lagoon.
What do I need to bring?
$5 per person for the Marine Fee. While the glass bottom boats do have a roof that will protect you from the sun, it's still encouraged to bring biodegradable sunscreen with you. You should also bring a swimsuit and a bag to keep your belongings dry. We have a photographer on board during most of our tours, so keep that when considering whether or not to bring your camera.
