Description

Enjoy one of the most popular tours in all of Cancun with this Speed boat tour through the mangroves. Feel the thrill of the wind in your hair as you slice through the Caribbean waters on your own two-person boat. On this tour, you'll get to go further and explore more than the standard speed boat tour in Cancun.

Cruise through remote mangroves in the Nichupte Lagoon as you look for exotic wildlife all around. We love this tour because it's an easy 2 hours roundtrip and leaves from the heart of the hotel zone. This makes it easy to pack in adventure while leaving you time for more fun during the rest of the day.

Why This Tour?

This speed boat tour in Cancun is an amazing way to start your day in Mexico. Get out of the resort and gain a great perspective of Cancun Bay and surrounding areas. There is no better way to check out the views of the shoreline, hotels, restaurants, and more than flying along in your own boat. It is easy to drive and the boats have a patented design that minimizes bumps and cuts through waves on the surface. This tour is great for adults and families with kiddos 3 years or older.

If you want to include snorkeling in your tour, check out the Speed Boat & Snorkeling Adventure. If snorkeling is less important, we recommend this particular tour as you get to explore more terrain and spend more time amongst the mangroves in the natural park.
