Rhino Off-Road and Snorkeling Tour

We will transport you from our main facility to our Welcome Station where you will: “Get geared up and ready to ride” your Yamaha 4x4 Rhino off-road vehicle.

Once geared up and you have received a safety briefing it is off thru the tropical jungles of Cozumel. Think of how you will feel as you whisk along - wind in your face - the jungle becoming a blur as you speed down the hard pack roads and sandy paths on your way to Punta Sur Eco Park, an Ecological Reserve on the southern end of Cozumel.

You are going to feel like a modern day Indiana Jones when you arrival at “El Caracol” a Mayan ruin, which in the distant past, was used as a weather station.

Continue your adventure watching the salt water crocodiles from the safety of an observation tower. Then explore the Colombia Lagoon which provides a refuge for small reef fish after they hatch. The lagoon also feeds the coral reef formations of the Columbia reef offshore.

Visit the Cozumel lighthouse, which is still operational, and has a small Navigation Museum attached to it for you to visit.

You are interested in seeing some of the best sites on Cozumel aren’t you? Well you will also get some leisure time to snorkel and see the magnificent and widely varied marine life of Palancar Reef. Relax and sunbathe on the tropical beach or swing in a hammock and enjoy the incomparable view of the Caribbean Sea.

Rested and relaxed then gear up and ride back to the Welcome Station and be taken back to the main facility.
