Turtle Snorkeling in Akumal | Local Tour + Photos Included
Description
In Green Life we share much more than a snorkeling tour: we share a part of our home. We are a local and family cooperative formed by people who have grown up in Akumal and who have created memories in these waters throughout their lives. What makes this experience special is the opportunity to discover the bay alongside people who know and love this place. Our tours take place in small groups, allowing us to offer closer and more personalized attention, always with respect to sea turtles and the natural environment. In addition to swimming alongside sea turtles in their natural habitat, you can admire the richness of the marine life of the bay and take pictures and videos of your experience to preserve this special memory. More than a tourist activity, we want you to live Akumal from a local, authentic and human perspective, creating memories that accompany you long after your visit.

Alex picked us up and walked with us to the beach. He was very friendly. During the snorkeling tour, our guide showed us several sea turtles and different kinds of fish. We really enjoyed the tour and appreciated how hard our guide worked to find the turtles so we could see them up close.
We recommend this excursion without hesitation. Everything was perfectly organized, and the private format makes all the difference. Thanks again to Alex and Raimundo. We were able to observe many turtles and spend much more time swimming with them than the large groups, which often just pass by quickly. Our guide Raimundo also took us over magnificent corals and many fish, in less crowded areas, which made the experience even more enjoyable. Throughout the trip, we were accompanied with great professionalism and attention. The underwater photos and videos are superb and allow you to leave with exceptional memories. A high-quality excursion, respectful of marine life, that we recommend to anyone who wishes to have a more personalized experience in Akumal.
Ray was our guide, he did a great job finding & showing us the turtles away from other groups. He also shared his knowledge about the turtles & their environment. Thank you for a magical experience.
Ray was very kind and persistent until we could see more turtles. It was a nice experience and very good service.
This was a fantastic experience! Alex met us at the 7-11, and he took us to the beach to meet Raymundo, our snorkeling guide. Both gentlemen were very friendly and accommodating. My husband and I got to see a couple of sea turtles as well as several kinds of colorful fish. The pictures Raymundo took of the turtles were amazing! Way better than anything I could have gotten on my own. I would highly recommend this package to anyone looking for a private snorkel tour with pictures included.
Alex and Raymondo were excellent! Alex met us early at the 711 and led us to the beach. He was very friendly and informative. Raymondo was an amazing tour guide. We saw two turtles, a barracuda, eagle ray, sting ray, and tons of fish! I highly recommend getting the first tour of the day, there was hardly anyone else in the water!
Prompt and efficient! Alex met us and es urged us to the park where he introduced us to Raymundo. He was an excellent guide and found several turtles to observe eating and breaching. We also saw stingray and many types of colorful fish. Time in the water wa about right. We went in the morning at we were back at our hotel by 11. Can’t wait for the photos!
We were at the pick up location and Alex was allready waitng for us. Alex was verry friendly and helpful. During snorkeling with Raymundu we saw multiple turtles, fish and stingrays. It was realy wonderful.
This was a fantastic experience. We snorkeled in a private group; just our family of two adults, a 13-year-old and a 10-year-old. Our guides were so friendly and knowledgeable. We swam off the beach but in an area that you have to visit with guides and we saw so many turtles, rays, fish and squid! Highly recommend!
Really great experience, would highly recommend. Alex and Ramondo were great, everything was seamless, from meeting up, through to the park entry and the turtle experience itself. The photos being included is a great benefit and we had some lovely family pictures. Thanks again!
