My family and I recently had the incredible opportunity to embark on a snorkeling excursion with AdrianCozumel, lead by Captain Alex and his partner Lalo, and it was an experience that surpassed all of our expectations. From the moment we set off, the crew's enthusiasm and love for the ocean were palpable, creating an infectious energy. The highlight of the trip was undoubtedly the chance to encounter magnificent sea turtles gracefully swimming in their natural habitat. It was a surreal and humbling experience, as we observed these gentle creatures up close, gliding effortlessly through the crystal-clear waters of Cozumel.
Not only did Captain Alex and his partner Lalo provide a chance to see sea turtles, but they also made sure we encountered other mesmerizing marine life. The vibrant and diverse ecosystem beneath the waves unveiled a kaleidoscope of colors as we swam alongside majestic starfish and graceful stingrays. The guides were knowledgeable, pointing out the different species and sharing fascinating facts about their behavior and habitat. It was a privilege to witness the intricate balance of nature, and I left the excursion with a newfound appreciation for the importance of preserving these fragile ecosystems.
One of the most memorable aspects of the snorkeling excursion was the enchanting sandbar lunch break. Captain Alex and his partner Lalo, took us to a secluded sandbar surrounded by turquoise waters, where we were treated to a delectable feast. As we dined on fresh guacamole, pico, fruit and sandwiches, the breathtaking views and gentle sea breeze provided the perfect backdrop for a truly unforgettable meal. The sense of tranquility and connection with nature was unparalleled, making it a truly magical moment that will forever be etched in my memory.
AdrianCozumel, and Captain Alex and his partner Lalo, offers a snorkeling experience that goes beyond the ordinary. Their commitment to providing an immersive and educational journey, combined with the chance to witness the beauty of sea turtles, starfish, and stingrays, is a testament to their passion for marine conservation. If you're seeking an adventure that will leave you with a profound appreciation for the ocean and its inhabitants, I wholeheartedly recommend embarking on a snorkeling excursion with AdrianCozumel. It's an experience that will ignite your love for nature and create memories that will...
Read moreMy wife and I just returned from a short cruise that included a stop in Cozumel. We chose to take a tour with Adrian while there. This was our second time taking an excursion with him and once again, it was awesome. We booked with Adrian well in advance to make sure we could get him locked in for our day there. He stayed in contact with us and finalized the details of what we wanted to do right before our day there. He is very flexible with his tour options with many things to choose from. This trip, we skipped the awesome power snorkeling we did on the first trip and spent several hours on a secluded beach on the north end of the island. We boated past the crowded Passion Island to our owm spot. There was no one else in sight! We had the whole place to ourselves. It was hard to believe that we could have that kind of paradise with no one else around. When you add in the beer, margaritas and snacks that Adrian provided (discussed with him ahead of time what we preferred), it was perfect. I am always nervous booking with a tour operator outside of the cruiseline-sponsored excursions; afraid that we will be late getting back to the ship. I shared that concern with Adrian. He assured me that he'd have us back in time and that he's never had anyone miss the ship. I think that we've decided to book a trip to Cozumel sometime soon, so we can spend more time on that beautiful island. And I'm sure we'll spend more time with Adrian too. We highly...
Read moreThis is an undiscovered gem, and frankly, I almost selfishly don't want to review it so it remains such!
Adrian’s tours are pronominal, intimate, informative, and best of all fun.
Our boat driver and tour guide were both super friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. They made sure we had the equipment we needed (masks & snorkels) safety equipment we wanted (life vests & flotation buoy), and the amenities we did not know we would need like delicious local beer for the ride to the reef, and a boogyboard of snacks to enjoy at the sandbar after we were all hungry from a day of swimming.
We experienced 4 snorkel sessions, one 30-minute session, and 3 shorter 10-minute sessions, as the tide and current meant we could only remain above the zone for so long.
We saw the coral reef, schools of fish, sea turtles, starfish, stingrays, puffer fish, and much more. And even when surrounded by other groups, our guide Alex made sure we were always accounted for, and that we knew where he and the boat were at all times.
Alex even brought a waterproof Go-Pro and got shots of not only the things we were seeing, but us as a group. A very thoughtful touch.
If you find yourself in Cancun, Cozumel, or anywhere nearby in Mexico, I truly cannot recommend these guys enough. They took great care of us, and I know they will do the...
