Sailfish Snorkeling Tour

Swim and snorkel with the Sailfish as they are hunting after huge shoals of sardines. Along side the sailfish, we have big chances of meeting dolphins, false killer whales, silky sharks as well as pelagic fish.

An annual migration of sardines occurs from December to March in the Mexican Caribbean that attracts the sailfish which is the fastest fish in the ocean, they hunt in a very organized way, same as mammals. This event is unique all around the globe.

We depart at 7:00 am from the marine located in Cancun's hotel zone km 9.5 next to Hotel Dreams Cancun. The group on board of the boat has a maximum of 10 people, beverages and a light lunch are included.

Once on high seas we will be on the search of birds feeding on the surface, once these birds have been found, the participants will be entering to the water on small groups that will take turns during the excursion.
