About this activity

Night Snorkeling is a unique experience because unlike Night Diving, it is not necessary to have a special certification or know how to swim. We will take you safely to be able to appreciate species that have a lot of activity during the night, our main objective is to be able to find octopus and squid to enjoy the show that they give with their impressive camouflage, to find them we will have to work as a team and on the way we will find other species more of which we will also learn a lot. Octopuses and squid are very beautiful and intelligent animals that you must come to appreciate alive in their natural habitat.

A must do on Cozumel

This was a really fun outing. So different from daytime snorkeling. The water wasn't stirred up from so many other snorkelers, no sunburn to worry about, and the totally different available species to see. It was terrific to be within a couple of feet of octopi and squid, neither of which I had ever seen outside of an aquarium or dinner plate. A night snorkel with Daniel is something I would definitely do again!

Go for it, very worth experience

Snorkeling at night was amazing because it's a different world. You will see other animals and fishes that you are used to seeing during the day. We saw a ray, pulpos, lobsters, moray...etc. Dany is a very good and nice guide. We could feel that he's passionate about marine life. He has all the equipment that you need. We really recommend this experience, even if it can sound a bit scary, it is not at all. We felt very comfortable and safe. I think it was also due to the very small group size. We were only 6 people in total: 4 persons and 2 guides.

AMAZING!

What an amazing time we had with Lalo!! We saw several octopus, an eel, barracuda and many other fish during our night time snorkel. Lalo was helpful knowledgeable and very professional. Not only would I recommend this to anyone looking for tours while visiting Cozumel my friend and I have been telling everyone we meet during our vacation to go on this tour!

An amazing and unique adventure

Lalo was knowledgeable and provided a very safe night snorkeling experience. We saw stingrays, moray eels, puffer fish (they are so soft), a small lobster, a barracuda, and three octopus!! The experience was thrilling and I could have stayed out there all night! And the photos and videos allow me to share this unique adventure with my family and friends. I will be doing this adventure again on my next visit to Cozumel!

Experience unparalelled sea life at night

No words can describe how incredible this experience is. Anyone can do this snorkel swim trip and everyone should. It's the real deal. Not touristy & as close to scuba as you can get in a snorkel experience because of all the sealife you get to see at night. We saw enormous eagle rays that swam by a few feet away from us. Got up close and personal with eel, squid, octopus, puffer fish, bioluminescent fish & barracuda. Probably forgetting some. The squid swam with us for quite some time and were interacting with us. They were swimming inches from me as interested in me as I was in them. It's a night swim right off the shore but it did not feel scary for one minute. Our guides knew exactly what they were doing and how to interact safely with the sealife. Did not feel cold (they provide wetsuits, snorkel gear, flashlights, etc.). Learned a lot about squid and octopus mannerisms and how to interact with them. Danny drove us back to our hotel after the tour. It was easy to book. Felt completely taken care of every step of the way. Definitely the coolest experience we have ever had in the water in 20 years of visiting Mexico. I rarely post reviews but this trip was incredibly special. Will remember this forever and would love to do it again.
