More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step from the marina ladder into salt-scented air and a low, cheerful swell—the catamaran eases out of Puerto Aventuras with open decks and an attentive crew. Sun slides across the turquoise Caribbean as the boat heads north toward In-Ha, a semi-sheltered reef where the water goes sheer and clear. Here, turtles graze on seagrass and parrotfish flash like living paint; the crew slides snorkel gear to the rail while snacks and cold drinks circulate.
