Transportation
Discover Cancun from the water on a five-in-one Mayan adventure through Nichupté Lagoon. Puerto Maya brings together the region’s living heritage, mangrove channels, Caribbean waters, and traditional flavors in one memorable experience.
Begin with a traditional Mayan ritual and a pre-Hispanic show, then take the wheel of your own speedboat for an exciting journey through the lagoon. The route leads to a reef snorkeling area where you can explore marine life in clear water.
After the water adventure, enjoy a traditional Mayan snack and drink before returning to the starting point. The experience is designed for travelers who want culture, nature, and adventure rather than a standard sightseeing outing.
With Puerto Maya, the story of Cancun’s ancient waterways meets a safe, energetic day on the Caribbean coast.
