Private 60ft Yacht Rental Cancun: Isla Mujeres & Snorkeling
Your crew handles the yacht. You decide where the day goes.
A private 60-foot yacht charter in Cancun puts you on the water with a licensed captain, two sailors, and a steward for 1 to 8 hours, depending on the option you choose. The route shifts with duration: shorter rentals cruise the Bay of Cancun and Nichupté Lagoon with an optional swim stop. Longer ones reach Isla Mujeres and its famous Playa Norte beach, with snorkeling at coral reefs and time to anchor and relax. You bring your own food and alcohol (red wine excluded), the crew provides soft drinks and ice, and the yacht departs from the marina on your schedule.
The experience
The yacht leaves the marina on a route that matches your rental length. For 1 to 3 hours, you cruise through Nichupté Lagoon, pass under the Cancun bridge, and enter the Bay of Cancun with an optional swim in turquoise water if weather allows. The crew handles all navigation and anchoring while you move between the deck, the cabin, and the water. Soft drinks and bottled water come with the charter. You bring whatever else you want to eat or drink.
Book 4 hours or longer and the route extends to Isla Mujeres. The yacht sails past the lagoon and mangroves to the island's Playa Norte: white sand, calm water, the kind of beach people travel weeks to find. You swim, snorkel the coral reef or a sunken ship site (weather permitting), sunbathe on deck, or anchor and do nothing but float. A 6-hour charter adds time to explore Isla Mujeres' inner lagoons and the option to stop at a beach club for lunch at your own cost. The 8-hour full-day option gives you the same destinations without the clock: more time at each stop, flexibility to linger in the water, and a return through the lagoon as the light turns golden.
The crew is a licensed captain, two professional sailors, and a steward. They manage the boat. You manage the day. Snorkeling gear and a paddle board are included. You can bring food, snacks, and alcohol (no red wine, hookahs, or fireworks). A floating mattress and safety equipment come with the charter. Once the yacht leaves the marina, the rental is considered complete: early departures for personal reasons don't qualify for refunds. In rough weather, the Caribbean may close. 1- to 3-hour rentals shift to the lagoon instead, which stays navigable.
