The Experience

The boat leaves from San Andres and moves slowly between seven points across the bay, stopping first at Old Point Red Mangroves where the guides point out the fauna and flora, then at Manawar Point to snorkel among colored fish, starfish and sea cucumbers. El Palito comes next—one of the liveliest stops, where pontoons gather for music and a festive atmosphere. By the time you reach Mundo Marino, the deepest point at roughly 3 meters, you'll put on a life jacket; this is where the marine variety peaks and the snorkeling is strongest.

Lunch happens at Bibi's Place, a restaurant on Haines Cay (one of the two islets of Cayo Acuario), and you pay separately for what you eat there. After lunch, Instagram Beach offers the best light for photos and a chance to spot manta rays. The tour then moves to a dedicated manta ray point where you swim alongside them—no touching, just moving freely in their space. The day closes at White Watta, where the famous Ibiza and Raizal floating bars sit, with music and a final stretch of the marine atmosphere before heading back.

You bring your own snorkel mask and any drinks you want; the boat keeps them cold in an icebox and provides 24 canned beers for the group. A live guide speaks English or Spanish throughout, and the boat carries full HD music with current songs. The whole day runs seven hours.
