Be sure to print a 2 for 1 coupon, or you'll be paying way too much. Very touristy, animals confined in too small spaces. We would have had a horrible time, but a brief thunderstorm ran all the cruise ship visitors off and after they were gone we could snorkel without feeling like we were being crowded.

This park has a great diversity for the young snorkeler or diver, with lots to see and entertain. Experienced divers will enjoy it too!

A great experience that everyone would enjoy - the photographers do an excellent job of mulitiple photos, but be prepared for a hefty price for all of those "memories"

Amazing day spent in this gorgeous and clean national park of Mexico! The six of us (adults 28-56 years) took a taxi for $16 (prices posted and dictated by law) to the park and spent the day snorkeling (clear, warm, barracuda and a dozen colorful fish species) fifteen feet off the shore. Great service, no hassling, free chairs 'n cabanas,... More

We (family of 9) took a taxi for $25 from the port where our cruise ship was docked (Carnival Paradise). Taxi rates are very visible on a display board, so you don't need to worry about haggling. Park admission is either $21/adult or $26/adult with a t-shirt and drink from one of the little shops. You can print a $2... More

We were on a cruise ship and chose this for our excursion. It was raining very hard that day. The roads were a foot deep in water but it did not stop the taxi and we planned to get wet anyway. The dolphins were great. We had lunch which was not very good. Then explored the area. The sand was... More

this was a nice place to go to relax, snorkel, sunbathe and see some sights (if you want to). We got off the ship and took a taxi here. the taxi drivers tried to talk us out of it - even saying that it was badly damaged by a hurricane. they tried to get us to go to a hotel... More

We went to Cozumel on a cruise and visited Chankanaab Park, this was the highlight of our vacation. We normally do a two tank drift dive in Cozumel because it has great diving and snorkeling, but this time we decided to do something different. We booked the push, pull and swim with the dolphins through our cruise ship, Royal Caribbean.... More
