Designed for people of all ages, Dolphin Discovery-Isla Mujeres is located just 20 minutes away by ferry from Isla Mujeres. The island is known for some of the most beautiful landscapes in the Caribbean Sea, so get into your holiday mood, let go of all your inhibitions and enjoy a swim with adorable dolphins in their natural habitat! Don't worry about your lack of experience - you will be standing on an underwater platform where the friendly dolphins will give you a kiss and a wet (but warm) hug! While you're standing there, you will have specialists recount fun facts about these playful dolphins such as their diet, breeding programs, and how they are looked after, as well as some tips to protect the environment. Once you're done with the dolphin encounter, go for a dip in the two pools, or just soak in the sun.

If you've chosen the option with entry to Garrafón Reef Natural Park, you will get to see a combination of the beauty of nature along with access to exciting activities on the island. Go snorkeling in one of the most beautiful coral reefs in Cancun or work out your extra energy with a kayaking trip in the lovely turquoise waters. When you get hungry, enjoy a bite (or much more) from the succulent buffet menu and sip on refreshing drinks from the national open bar. Later, lie down on the comfortable lounge chairs or hammocks, and relax. It's two unique experiences rolled into one - an absolute must-do!
