The best of the Mexican Caribbean is calling on this exclusive boat trip to Isla Mujeres – think snorkelling, A-list landscapes, and pampering along the way, all in a family-friendly setting.

Your day kicks off with a hotel pick-up and check-in at Marina Hacienda del Mar. After hopping aboard the catamaran, you'll cruise through the Mexican Caribbean waters, making your first stop to snorkel. The coral reefs here are something to shout about, plus, you'll likely spot tropical fish – and if you're lucky, maybe even a sea turtle. Kids aged over eight can join in on the snorkelling fun, too, if they're with an adult, while those a little younger can enjoy a swim as long as an adult stays with them.

Next, you'll head to Isla Mujeres' downtown before arriving at our exclusive beach club, where it's relaxation to a T. Think unlimited drinks from the open bar, a delicious grill buffet and sun beds under the palms. If you're in the mood for a little adventure, a guided golf cart tour can take you to the southern tip of the island – perfect for those all-important holiday pics, with rugged coastline views and a lighthouse. After a day of exploring and unwinding, you'll sail back to the marina, soaking in the last views of the coast.

It was a very good day out. There were some unusually tight age restrictions in the snorkelling and not a lot of food options, especially for fussy kids but there was plenty to do and the golf carts were very fun!

We had a truly fantastic day. It started with an early pick up in an air conditioned minibus then a couple of pick ups. Once at the dock we were introduced to the staff on the catamaran, they were all really friendly and attentive for the whole trip, so great credit goes to all of them. First we stopped on the reef halfway to Mujures for the snorkelling. This was awesome, we saw all kinds of fish and right at the end, about 15 minutes in total, we saw a huge stingray and a turtle, brilliant

we were NOT told by tui reps that the snorkeling age stopped at 65 and that we also needed a driving licence to do the golf buggies on the other side. this was very disappointing as we booked the trip on the recommendation of the reps to find we couldn't do them. The island we went to was beautiful but not for the price that we paid, to just see that and the beach resort for the.price that was paid for the total day trip

Albatross service was amazing, they worked so hard! Snorkeling was well led, north side of the island very tourist trap, lots of shops. South side beach club was bus, food not amazing. Really recommend going on the golf cart to punta sur, amazing views. Overall would recommend.
