Whether you're an experienced snorkeler … a complete rookie … or want to experience this magical underwater world without even getting wet – then this is for YOU …

Get Ready For The Experience Of A Lifetime – Even If You've Never Snorkeled Before Or Don't Want To Get Wet!

Read on to discover how snorkeling – or even watching from our glass-bottomed boats - will be an exciting experience you'll treasure for ever …

Hi … allow me to congratulate you on vacationing in the beautiful Cozumel area, where the scenery is fantastic. And even more stunning scenery awaits you just under the surface of the crystal clear waters surrounding our wonderful island.

We are so very proud to have the second largest coral reef system in the world!

So, it wouldn’t it be a great shame if such a wonderful, once-in-a lifetime opportunity was ruined?

And that can easily happen if you dive with too many other people, so you never get to experience that wonderful underwater silence, like being in another world. And it gets worse.

You see, the noise from too many snorkelers will also sharply reduce the chances of enjoying our spectacular marine life, ranging from schools of colourful fish to even turtles and stingrays!

And, if that wasn’t enough, imagine NOT being allowed to photograph the wonders you see below. After all, taking photos – videos even – is the way we all preserve our golden memories for the future.

And photos allow you to share your amazing experience back home with your friends and relatives.

And with underwater cameras being available for as little as ten bucks, there’s no reason why you need deny yourself this extra dimension of pleasure … unless your tour operator forbids cameras!

And it’s no good crying over split milk, because that’s the sort of thing - like the size of your party - you probably won’t discover until it’s too late. Then you’ll be horrified to find 20 … 30 … 40… or even 50 other snorkelers jostling with you in the water, with the noise frightening the fish away!

There just has to be a better way …

… there is.

A better way where …

• Your entire party is deliberately limited to about 10 people, to maximize your enjoyment, rather than the tour operator’s profits.
• And where you can shoot as many photos – and even video – to your heart’s content.

Welcome … my name is Alberto Sosa and I have 25 years experience as a snorkeling guide and my company, Cozumel Snorkel, has been helping our valued guests discover the thrill of snorkeling in our spectacular waters for the last 22 years, since 1995.

Our goal for all our VIP guests, whether coming from cruise liners or staying in local hotels, is simple …

… to make your snorkeling experience the highlight of your entire vacation, just like we did for the Sandford family …

… and for Michael Amber and his wife …

And here are a couple of important ways we go the extra mile to make your day utterly special …

• Although our boats can take up to 20 people, we prefer to limit our parties to about ten, so you get maximum enjoyment. It also means our small number of snorkelers don’t scare the fish way. In fact, we encourage the fish by regular feeding. So you’ll be sure to dazzled by the variety and colors of the fish – you might even see a turtle or other more exotic creature!
• And you’ll be the envy of the folks back home, because – unlike other tour operators – we allow you to take as many photos or videos as you like. So just think what wonderful memories you’ll be able to share and relive for many years in the future with your own personal collection of underwater photos – or even video!

Here’s what our more relaxed approach means for you …

And, don’t worry that you won’t understand us - we all speak English very well!

So whether you’re:

• An experienced snorkeler – who will experience a whole new dimension to your sport seeing our breathtaking coral reef close up plus the chance to swim near to turtles and other exotic sea creatures.
• You’re new to snorkeling – so you’ll be thrilled by the experience of almost flying in that totally silent and peaceful underwater world, just under the surface. And you’ll be awestruck by the sight of the coral, right there in front of you, and the brilliant colors of the schools of fish as they swoop by.
• You don’t want to go snorkeling, but you still want to experience the astonishing beauty of this underwater world – in which case you’ll love the view from our glass-bottomed boat. Because the water is crystal clear and coral reef so shallow, it’s just like being there - without the need to dry off after!

Here’s a tiny taster of what you can look forward to on your trip …

You’ll feel the excitement rising the minute we meet up and you embark on one of our 3 comfortable, glass-bottomed boats.

Then, soon after you settle onto your boat, we arrive at the coral reefs in the Marine Park, which has the second largest coral reef in the world.

We chose these reefs for their spectacular beauty and their shallowness (ranging from just 6–18 feet [1.8 metres – 3.6 metres] deep). This – coupled with the crystal clear water - means that, even if you don’t enter the water and are content to view it all through the glass bottom of the boat, you’ll see every detail, pin-sharp.

And, if you slip just below the surface of the water, you’ll enter a wonderful new, silent world, where you are instantly at one with Nature. And you’ll immediately be dumbstruck by the sheer beauty of the coral reef and the amazing variety of the shapes and colors of the fish as they dart by.

That’s when you’ll really start to appreciate our policy of severely restricting the numbers of snorkelers in our parties.

And you’ll also thank us for allowing you to use your underwater camera, so you can share your trip with those envious folks back home!

Then, when you’ve drunk your fill of this amazing experience, you’ll enjoy returning to the boat to share your experience with your family and the other members of our small party, whilst enjoying a refreshing cold drink.

Here’s a quick summary of what will make this a snorkeling trip of a lifetime …

• The most friendly and experienced team of certified snorkeling guides in all of Cozumel. Every one with a minimum of 8 years of experience.
• Personal attention from our experienced, friendly guides (much easier to do when there are so few guests).
• Your choice of 3 convenient start times: 9:30am; 12:00pm (noon) and 3:00pm.
• Unlimited photography, including as much video footage as you want!
• Visiting the 3 best reefs in Cozumel’s world-famous Marine Park: Paradise Reef; Villa Blamnca Gardens Reef and the Dzul-Ha Reef.
• Everything is included – all your snorkeling equipment and even soft drinks or beer!

You get all this – and much, MUCH more for just …

• $59 usd for an adult (age 13+)
• $49 usd for kids (age 1-12) and yes, they can go snorkeling.

And which our previous guests consider to be great value …

So why settle for anything less than the very best?

Why should you settle for anything less than perfect arrangements for this wonderful experience of a lifetime?

After all, this will be a trip you will want to remember for the rest of your life.

So why risk spoiling the day by being crammed in with too many people, or being forbidden from using your camera when, on our trips, you can enjoy plenty of space as well as shoot photos and videos to your heart’s content?

But there is some bad news …

And I think it’s only fair to warn you, that, due to our excellent reputation and the fact we deliberately limit our parties to around 10 snorkelers, for your benefit, and because we only have 3 boats in our tiny fleet, we get booked up very quickly.

Easy to understand, when you realize there are about 20,000 people arriving here daily from the Cruise Ships alone – quite apart from the good folks staying in the hotels here and at Playa del Carmen and the other nearby resorts.

Happily, there’s also some good news.

You can check right now (regardless of the time, night or day) for the availability of slots on your chosen day. That’s because our web site is constantly updated, in real time, as each fresh booking takes up more of our precious slots.

So now you have a simple choice …

You can book a trip with your cruise line or one of the other snorkeling businesses in the area and risk being crowded out by hordes of other snorkelers (and probably be banned from taking even a single photo).

OR …

You can resolve that this trip of a lifetime deserves only the very best and make your booking right now and so avoid disappointment, later. I guarantee you’ll feel marvellous, once you know you’ve secured one of our limited places.

Then you can order your underwater camera, which can be gotten from Amazon.com for less than ten dollars.

We’re really looking forward to meeting you and proudly showing you our wonderful underwater world.

Sincerely,

Alberto

P.S. Meeting up with us is so simple – regardless of where you’re arriving from …

We meet at the ‘Marti Sports’ (the ‘Sporting Goods Store’ next door to Hard Rock Cafe), a very well known landmark in Royal Village Shopping Mall Cozumel. That means …

• If you are staying on Cozumel: everyone - including the staff at the hotel you’re staying at – knows where the ‘Marti Sports’ (the ‘Sporting Goods Store’ next door to Hard Rock Cafe) is and will happily give you directions. Or you can just hop in a taxi, because all the taxi drivers know the way!
• On a Cruise Ship? You’ll arrive at the Cruise Pier, which is just across the street from our meeting point (about 100 yards from both Puerta Maya, and TMM International Cruise Piers). Do choose one of our three departure times that is at least 30 minutes after the time you are due to dock. Our trips last 2 ½ hours.
• Coming from Playa del Carmen? Perfect, because you’ll arrive at the Cozumel Ferry Pier, which is just a few minutes away from our meeting point by taxi (and all the taxi drivers know where the ‘Marti Sports’ is).

P.P.S. You’ll really appreciate our limited party size, but it does mean you risk getting shut out, if you delay booking.

P.P.P.S. I’ll leave the last words to SAMUEL as he recounts his turtle sighting and to Adrienne and her stingray …
