We had an AMAZING time snorkelling ! I was very nervous as this was my first experience at this but Lalo our tour guide was so kind and helpful I instantly felt so much more relaxed in the water. The team were so supportive and friendly, incredible experience that we will never forget. Great price for this trip would highly recommend, thank you Lalo!

I can totally recommend the diving trip to the Manchones Reefs with Pocna! Our instructor Ivan was great and thanks to him we were able to spot many different animals - my personal highlight the three big turtles we were able to see. On the boat we had snacks and fresh water, which was nice coming out of the water. All in all a great experience.

We organized our diving with only one day in advance thanks to the amazing people of POCNA! The boat’s crew was special and our instructor, Nefi, was really prepared and chilling, sensitive to our needs. We did two wonderful divings in a few hours in the morning and we were able to see turtles, angelfish, scorpion fish, parrot fish, lobster, and amazing corals. We definitevely recommend Pocna!!! Thank you!!!

The guides were wonderful and the tour was well-paced. We saw so much awesome marine life! It was great to go to both MUSA and the reef for a variety of snorkeling experience.

My partner and I had an incredible time; this was definitely a highlight of our trip to Mexico. I want to thank our guides and captain at Pocna Dive Center, Nefi, Morgan, and Jose. The whole experience was seamless. I booked the Snorkel Tour at Musa and Manchones Reef through Musa's website. Pocna Dive Center was easy to find, located next to Hotel Selina, and was walkable from our Airbnb. Nefi checked us in, gave us our equipment, and our group walked a few blocks to the dock. Nefi, Morgan, and Jose were full of energy and incredibly friendly. They shared a lot of knowledge of the area and the Musa. Each of them was professional, skilled, and fun, making for a memorable and safe adventure. We saw so much while snorkeling; Nefi and Morgan would point out different fish species and share facts as we navigated the Musa. They did a great job keeping us in a group and ensuring we were aware of the reef around us. We did two dives, and both offered very different experiences; seeing the variety of life and environments in the area was neat. They had fresh water, watermelon, and cookies to share between dives. The whole experience was so fun; we would do it again in a heartbeat. The snorkeling tour was better than we had hoped, but I want to make sure our guides know that I am so sincerely grateful for the effort made as I made one of the dumbest traveling/water activity mistakes... As I exited the water after our first dive, the metal clip on my knockoff GoPro wrist lanyard broke, sending my GoPro floating to the bottom of the ocean. Many lessons have been learned, but the most obvious: don't be cheap; buy the GoPros accessories, and duh! Use the floaty! I realized it had broken and was gone immediately; Jose heard me say that I had lost it, and immediately, he and Nefi went into search mode, signaling to each other. Given the circumstances and where we were, I had to accept my mistake - it was gone. I had to acknowledge that it's a material object; although an expensive one that I need as a full-time student - I still have the memories, and I can save up for another one. Nefi had swam some distance from the boat, and after a couple of minutes of searching, he started waving his arm and dove down. Somehow, he found the GoPro! I am so grateful and realize how unlikely it is to find and retrieve a small item at the bottom of the open ocean. It was my fault, and the crew did not need to do anything. I want to thank the whole crew and tell you how much I appreciate you. As a former guide, I am embarrassed and humbled being THAT person, but truly thank you for everything. Later that evening, I discovered that I had been recording before I dropped it... Not only did Nefi save me from having to replace the camera and the loss of those recorded memories from the trip - but he also filmed some of the best footage possible! (Not able to upload for some reason) Thank you all for the beautiful experience.

Not a terrific tour. Not terrible, just "bland." Our guide gave us NO information (interesting or otherwise) on the Museum itself. Thankfully we did some reading up on it before, but it was apparent that others on the tour had not. Viator instructed us to check in & fill out paperwork at the tour office at 12:30pm. That took about 5 minutes. We were then told to return at 1:30pm, which we did to get our fins (we had our own masks & wetsuits), which--again--took 5 minutes. Then we waited another hour to actually get on the boat for the excursion at 2:30pm, returning a bit after 5pm.

Our guide Lalo was amazing! He was very informative and very helpful when one person in our group was a little nervous to snorkel. Our group thought the museum was cool, but we really loved snorkeling in the reef - it was beautiful!

Great dive center on Isla Mujeres! Had some great dives with guides who really went above and beyond to try to find all of the local sea life unique to the area. They really did try to make our experience the best possible and I could not have been happier!

We went snorkelling with guide Lalo, who was very informative of the different types of fish and critters at the two dive sites. He pointed out so many sites and gave many helpful tips for snorkelling. Very patient with us novice snorkellers and kindly helped me along when I felt a bit funny after accidentally ingesting seawater. We went together with a group of beginner scuba divers and snorkellers (though some outings are just divers or just snorkellers it would seem), and the other guides and folks provided a congenial atmosphere while on the boat to the sites, as well as some fun interaction between us at the surface and them below. There were naturally beautiful sights to behold, cool art installation, an insane variety of tropical fishes that swim very close to you, even barracudas, rays, and pufferfish! Lalo luckily spotted a sea turtle towards the final leg of the dive! The reception staff were very kind and informative also. There are lockers available for a 200 peso deposit or by leaving a piece of ID. One very important detail to note if you are viewing the website is that they actually do not allow *any* sunscreen as none are safe for the reefs in their state, to current knowledge. The staff is not to blame for this miscommunication; the website was made by some travel agency. DO wear long sleeves and pants with high UV ratings for the excursion. It is hot, but the water will be cool enough as you go along. Thank you Pocna Dive Centre and Lalo! -Shannon

Hoy hicimos snorkel con Lalo. Era nuestra primera vez y nos sentimos en muy buenas manos. Lalo siempre se aseguraba de que nos sintiéramos bien, nunca nos perdía de vista y estaba en todo momento pendiente de nosotros. Además, nos enseñó muchas cosas e incluso pudimos ver un par de tortugas :)!
