In Total Snorkel Cancun, we're experts turning your anxiety into joy, and we believe that being a non-swimmer or a beginner snorkeling is not a reason to lose the chance to enjoy one of the best activities to do in Cancun.

Our exclusive snorkeling tour for non-swimmers in Cancun is perfect for you, this is why:
  • We offer a useful briefing/lesson before getting on board. People with few or no snorkeling experience receive the lesson on shallow waters, where they feel safe and open to listening to any instruction.
  • You'll try the gear before getting offshore. We won't leave until you feel 100% comfortable with what you're wearing.
  • The groups are kept small to guarantee personal attention (average 6 people per group).
  • Our guides always wear a wheel (life preserver) where non-swimmers and beginners can hang at any time. There's nothing more important for a non-swimmer than feeling safe, and with someone close who they can trust.
  • The whole area (where the snorkeling tour is enjoyed) has a max depth of 9 feet, and calm waters, with few or no currents.
  • Lifevest is included.
