Description
For nature lovers and those who enjoy the tranquility and beauty of an uninhabited island; Isla Contoy, being a protected natural area since 1961 and decreed National Park since 1998 due to its great biodiversity, is the best option. The appointment is at 9:00 am at the marina Hacienda del Mar, 100 meters from the ruins, the mecca where tourists can have their continental breakfast (coffee, juice and bread), also is the moment when they receive their 2 bracelets; one white for the toll, which is included in the price, and the other yellow with a cost of 10 dollars or $160.00 pesos, which is paid directly at the dock and is the donation for the conservation of the Isla Contoy National Park. Pick ups are available at all Cancun hotels, at 9:30 am after having breakfast, picked up your bracelets and signed the departure sheet, we start boarding the boat, to go directly to the Ixlache reef which is located in front of Isla Contoy and is part of the National Park which assures us the perfect state of it and a large number of marine species. Snorkel equipment is included and for this activity is mandatory the use of life jackets and a tour guide for every 10 people. This activity lasts 40 minutes. Once the snorkeling activity is over, we board the boat again to go to Contoy Island. In case of bad weather the snorkel is done directly in the cove for the safety of the passengers. When disembarking at Contoy, visitors can enjoy the white sandy beaches and the crystal clear virgin waters on the shores of which we find manta rays, various fish and birds. Visitors can also tour the island on foot, visit the museum and the observatory on their own or make the tours with our tour guides certified by SEMARNAT visiting the dunes, knowing the different species of flora and fauna and the bird lagoon. Also if you decide not to take any tour you can rest peacefully on its beautiful beaches. SEMARNAT and the association 'Amigos de Isla Contoy' watch over the proper functioning of the park and carry out various programs to protect marine species in order to conserve this natural wonder. It is time for lunch, which consists of tikinchic fish, grilled chicken, garden rice, salad, fruit, tortilla chips and bread. On board and on the island we have water, soft drinks and beers (beers are served after the snorkeling activity, for safety reasons). Once lunch and the tours are finished, we board the boat to go to Isla Mujeres to visit the typical fishing village, or do some shopping, for an hour. This tour is an excellent opportunity to visit 2 islands in one day, getting the best of each one. After Isla Mujeres we head back to Cancun, with a lively party to arrive at the Marina Hacienda del Mar at 5:00 p.m.Includes
