Private Snorkeling boat rental Akumal
Private Snorkeling Boat Rental in Akumal
A private mini yacht for up to six people that leaves right from the main bay of Akumal — the meeting point and the drop-off are the same beach. If you are staying in Akumal there is no van ride to Puerto Aventuras and no marina to find: you walk down to the bay, step on board and the tour starts.
This is the Akumal boat rental for couples and small families who want the reef, the turtles and the lagoon without sharing the boat with strangers. Four hours, your own captain, snorkel gear on board, and a route built around the best snorkeling in Akumal.
When the boat is back you still have the day: beach access is included, so you can stay and enjoy Akumal beach for as long as you like.
What the Akumal Snorkel Tour Includes
Snorkeling in a private lagoon · about 1 hour
The spot locals call “where the water is born”: an underground freshwater spring rises to the surface among the mangroves, and the clear water is full of fish.
Open-sea cruise · about 1 hour
A relaxed run along the Akumal coastline with drinks and seasonal fruit on board.
Swimming with sea turtles and the coral reef
Snorkel with turtles of different sizes and explore the Akumal reef — rays, tropical fish and plenty of marine life. Sightings are frequent but always depend on the sea and the day.
Ideal for everyone
From couples to small families who want a private, luxury experience on the water.

Common Questions
Where does the Akumal boat tour start?
At the main bay of Akumal. It is both the meeting point and the return point, so you only need to walk to the beach.
Do we need transport to Puerto Aventuras?
No. That is the point of this tour: it leaves from Akumal itself, so there is no ground transfer to a marina.
How many people fit on the boat?
Up to 6 guests. The $15,000 MXN price is for the whole private boat.
How do we pay?
A deposit by card or bank transfer secures the date. The balance is paid in cash when you board.
Will we see turtles?
Very often — Akumal is one of the best places on the coast to snorkel with sea turtles — but wildlife is never guaranteed.
