"Nos encanto esta playa....color transparente...lleno de estrellas de mar, mantarrayas, quedamos fascinados"

"Playa El Cielo es una de las mejores opciones para visitar en Cozumel. Los colores, la vida marina (estrellas de mar, mantarrayas ) y la tranquilidad del agua la convierte en una zona paradisíaca. Puedes tomar un tour en los muelles de llegada a Cozumel y en 50 minutos estarás visitando los arrecifes Palancar y Colombia, y terminar en Playa El Cielo. El paseo puede durar 4 - 5 horas."

"Realmente el nombre de esta playa, parece literal. aguas cristalinas, arenas blancas... nos encanto... imperdible en la visita a cozumel"

"Sin duda uno de los lugares más increíbles del mundo, vimos muchísimos animales marinos increíbles!!! La vista padrísima! Todo un show natural!!"

"Los arrecifes son hermosos, el agua cristalina y a diferencia de Isla mujeres, no huele nada mal. Sin embargo, dejan bajar de la embarcación con bebidas a las personas y creo que eso puede llegar a ser problemático si no se cuida la recolección de residuos, tanto a la salud de la vida marina, como de las personas en general. Como punto final para tomar en cuenta, si van al banco de arena, luego hay rayas que nadan muy cerca de ti. Es asombroso, pero hay que tener cuidado de no molestarlas."

"Este lugar es el paraíso terrenal, hacer snokel en esta belleza natural es una experiencia fuera de este mundo, la intesidad de colores que puedes ver aquí es única en México, la barra de coral y el arrecife son espectaculares, no te puedes perder esta experiencia, es de verdad una maravilla natural."

"El agua es cristalina y permite ver las estrellas de mar. Son bastantes y estan a dos o tres metros. En verdad una experiencia muy interesante."

"Un paraíso,su mar turquesa hermosos arrecifes su fauna marina hermosa todo un día disfrutando de una gran vista."

Cuando a veces sientes que las fotos se han modificado para aparentar un color mas azul. No es el caso, es absolutamente CRISTALINO.

Muy buena playa para visitar y hacer snorkel o buceo. Si tienen la oportunidad de visitar Cozumel aunque sólo sea unas horas, hagan un tour y visiten el Cielo de Cozumel, disfrutaran de sus arrecifes y su vida marina.

"Un lugar mágico, hermoso, digno del caribe y que mejor que mexicano, puedes ver miles de estrellas de mar viviendo totalmente su hábitat al maximo!"

If you want a stunning vacation memory that will stay with you forever, then our PREMIUM El Cielo Snorkeling Tour is for YOU, because …

The Day You Visit This ‘Heaven On Earth’ Will Be Seared Into Your Memory Forever!

The Spanish name, ‘El Cielo’, translates into English as ‘Heaven on Earth’ and never was a location more aptly named.

Imagine snorkeling in the Most Beautiful part of Cozumel’s Marine Park - within a closely protected area - entry to which is Forbidden to Most Snorkelers …

Because of that, it absolutely teems with a rich variety of marine life - in stark contrast to the relatively barren reefs which most of the snorkeling tours have to settle for, with far fewer fish and other species.

But we are in a privileged elite as one of the very few licensed operators to fulfill the very strict ecological demands by operating ultra eco-friendly boats.

And thus are allowed to enter the restricted marine life rich protected area forming Cozumel’s underwater wonderland – The Marine Park - in our glass-bottomed boats.

Does that sound too good to be true?

That’s what Carol Bell from Lincoln, Nebraska thought – until she experienced our service …

When I'm back on the island I'm booking again!"

When we arrived at our meeting point just across the street from our cruise pier we were welcomed as if we were family and immediately boarded the boat and the fun began right away.

We snorkeled two reefs to see amazing marine life and the grand finale was a place called El Cielo, the most beautiful place in the world.

When I'm back on the island I'll be booking again. Thanks Alberto and Pancho for a fabulous time.

The FAMOUS El Cielo, Palancar & Colombia Snorkeling Tour…

When you slip gently into the warm, crystal clear tropical water...

You’ll enter a different world of turquoise colored silence with the wonderful feeling of weightlessness – just as if you were flying. And, if this is your first time snorkeling in these protected waters, you’ll be stunned at the sheer volume and variety of the colorful tropical fish swimming among the impressive reefs of both hard and soft coral. We encourage this desirable state of affairs by feeding the fish!

The Most Spectacular Snorkeling Reefs in the area lie within the protected Cozumel Marine Park area .

But, because we are one of the very few businesses who have invested in the high quality glass-bottomed boats, with the latest environmentally friendly engines, to meet the very strict ecological requirements needed to preserve this marine wonderland, you will enjoy a spectacular trip of a lifetime with us.

YOU'll visit a total of 3 different Snorkeling Locations . Which – needless to say – are 3 of the most astonishing among a whole area of spectacular reefs .

The first of these is the aptly named ‘Palancar Gardens Reef’…

Palancar Garden Reef is an impressive reef that consists of many different life forms. Many people who want to learn how to snorkel land in this spot.

What makes this reef unique is the presence of very high coral systems that have many different living beings on them. As we already said, this is a picture that you will remember forever.

While you are underwater, you will notice the beautiful sea turtles. They are very common in Palancar Gardens Reef. Besides, you will probably have a chance to see some butterflyfish, angelfish, black groupers and even some green moray eels too.

Generally speaking, this is a shallow reef which is perfect for novice snorkelers.

Then you’ll visit the ‘Colombia Shallows Reef’…

It is tough to say which reef in Cozumel is the best, but some things make this reef ideal for snorkelers.

For starters, this reef is in an area that looks like a natural bay. As the name suggests, the water is not very deep, and the experience level needed for snorkeling in this area is beginner/novice.

When it comes to marine life, this area blesses with extraordinary life forms. For instance, hawksbill sea turtles, as well as the green sea turtle, are probably the first thing you will notice in the waters.

You'll also see moray eels, barracuda, octopuses, starfish, angelfish, grouper and other species of exotic fish.

This colorful reef will spice up your holiday in Cozumel. That's for sure.

Lastly - the highlight of the day - ‘El Cielo Beach’…

After you’ve had ample time to enjoy a breathtaking snorkel trip around both the Palancar Gardens Reef and the Colombia Shallow Reef, we travel the short distance to the sandbar of ‘El Cielo’ – ‘Heaven On Earth’ - for our beach party finale!

There you’ll be able to quickly understand why this magical spot is so aptly named as you drink in the magnificent beauty so readily visible in just four feet of beautiful turquoise, crystal clear water.

At the same time your mouth will be watering in anticipation of the feast to come as your guides prepare fresh guacamole for you to savor.

You'll enjoy an exceptional El Cielo Snorkeling excursion that is second to none - as many past customers will attest…

Ended the tour at El Cielo - White Sandy Beach, Blue Sky, Great Guacamole, Fruit, Beer and Drinks while listening to music"

Boat was there promptly to pick us up, smiles and good vibes from the crew that knows service is their game.

The ride to the first snorkeling reef was about 20 minutes there we saw turtles, a ray and barracudas.

The second spot was a shallow reef Alberto refers to as his "sacred garden" - kind a cute name for a place.

We ended the tour at "El Cielo" a white sand, sky blue beach where we had great guacamole, fruits, beer and drinks while listening to music, playing on the water and making acquaintances with the rest of the group.

Every day is a good day with Alberto!

You'll be escorted by fully Licensed & English Speaking Guides…

Every boat Captain and Snorkeling Guide (mostly my uncles and cousins) are Certified Snorkeling Guides and Speak excellent English , so your spectacular trip won’t be spoilt by having to struggle to understand what they are saying.

In fact, that is one risk you really cannot afford to take

Because – in situations like this, when safety must be paramount – it’s vital you immediately understand every word your crew says, without a second’s doubt or hesitation.

‘El Cielo Cozumel Tours’ is a family-owned business…

Hi … my name is Alberto Novelo and I and my close family have been providing snorkeling tours in Cozumel for well over 20 years .

During that time, we have delighted multiple thousands of snorkelers, many of whom return again and again and have become firm friends.

What’s more, because this is a family business – not staffed by disinterested employees – every single member of my family is dedicated to making your snorkeling trip a memory you will cherish.

Snorkeling or Not - You'll enjoy the ride on our Glass-Bottomed Boats with plenty of Shade, Seating & Drinks…

As part of our Premium Service our Boats are all Glass-Bottomed with ample shade and plenty of comfortable seating...

So if you can’t swim (or simply don’t want to get wet) you will still enjoy the glorious sights in the crystal clear tropical waters below the boat from the comfort of your seat, shaded from the sun, with a cold drink at your elbow.

And if you are planning on snorkeling, then, during the short trip to the reefs, our guide will demonstrate exactly how to use the snorkeling equipment and how to snorkel for maximum comfort and safety.

Absolutely no overcrowding – ever!

So determined are we to ensure you enjoy the best possible experience on this wonderful day, we strictly limit our 22 person capacity boats to a maximum of 12 passengers.

This means we can give each and every one of you the personal attention you deserve as our VIP guests, particularly if this is your first time swimming underwater.

We saw another boat with over 20 people and I was relieved to be on a trip that was more attentive and organized"

Alberto was a great guide, very positive, funny, energetic and a great diver. He pointed out stingrays, conches, sea cucumbers, starfish, and many types of colorful fish.

The water is gorgeous and the reefs are amazing.

Pancho was a skilled boat driver.

We saw another boat with over 20 people on the snorkel trip and I was relieved to be on a trip that was more attentive and organized.

Alberto also sent me pics from the trip since I did not bring an underwater camera. I recommend bringing an underwater camera since there is so much to see.

I wouldn't hesitate to book a trip with these guys again! Thank you! Highly recommended!

What sets us apart from other El Cielo tours in Cozumel?

Four important things …

• We are a family run and staffed business - and thus so far more interested in making your day wonderful in a way no employee could ever manage.
• We are one of the elite few tour companies authorized to visit the most stunning reefs, which are located inside the protected area of the Cozumel Marine Park . That is Palancar Garden Reef, Colombia Shallow Reef, and the famous El Cielo sandbar.
• Although our boats are designed to safely transport 22 people, we set a limit of 12 passengers, so we can give every one of our VIP guests a five star service and they have ample room to relax on our comfortable seating, which is carefully shaded for your maximum comfort.
• We not only allow you to bring your infants, aged one and upwards, we also allow your children aged 3 and upwards to snorkel. They must all be supervised by one of your party at all time, however, a member of our crew will also be close at hand when under the water for extra safety.

You're in GOOD COMPANY WITH US

Nervous about snorkeling for the first time.

So was Christine Morgan and her party from Fairview, Illinois. Read what happened next …

Christine​ ​Morgan

Fairview, Illinois

First Time Snorkeling, so we were a bit nervous - But from the moment we stepped on Alberto's boat all apprehensions vanished"

As it was the first time we’d snorkeled, we were a bit nervous. But from the moment we stepped on his boat, all apprehensions subsided.

Such a caring, fun and upbeat crew to be with on his boat. Laughter was constant and drinks were plentiful! Alberto and his crew consistently ensured that we were comfortable, laughing and well taken care of.

Another crew member was constantly taking pictures so that we could solely enjoy the snorkeling experience.

El Cielo Tours was great in every way. Their website, their responsiveness, and especially the owner/guide Alberto, who was just outstanding.

Even if this is your First Time Snorkeling, YOU will enjoy an Extraordinary Adventure that few other excursions can match!

And if you are planning on snorkeling for the first time, our English speaking guide will demonstrate exactly how to use the snorkeling equipment and how to snorkel for maximum comfort and safety, during the short trip to the reefs.

Unlike many snorkeling companies operating out of Cozumel, we supply a brand new snorkel tube, free of charge, for your exclusive use.

So you can be confident that you – AND ONLY YOU – will have had this tube in your mouth. After your trip we carefully dispose of every tube in a totally eco-friendly way.

And that's Because we specialize in Families with Children & Beginner Snorkelers...

This was one friend's First Time Snorkeling, so Pancho stayed with her the whole time and made sure she was Safe"

I just want to say what a great time we had with Alberto and his crew.

The weather was fantastic and the water just as amazing as I remembered from last year.

This was one friend’s first time snorkeling, so Pancho stayed with her the whole time and made sure she was safe.

We saw a shark, ray and sea turtle among a lot of other beautiful fish.

At El Cielo the guacamole was delicious as were the Coronas. I totally recommend this if you like to snorkel and have a great time.

We literally just walked 50 yards to our meeting point where these guys were waiting us"

These guys definitely live up to the reviews on Trip Advisor.

We arrived in Cozumel and literally just walked 50 yards to our meeting point where these guys were waiting on us.

Pancho, and Alberto did a wonderful job as our guides. We saw sea turtles, many tropical fish and even a baby shark.

After snorkeling, we headed to the one of the most beautiful natural swimming pools on earth, El Cielo, for a pleasantly relaxing time with drinks and fresh guacamole dip made by Pancho and Alberto.

I will definitely recommend to family and friends a future excursion to Cozumel.

Thank you Pancho!

The PROGRAM

Here's what you can expect from this Awesome Excursion:

Meeting up for your Snorkeling Tour

You’ll find our Meeting Point at the Motor Lobby of El Cid La Ceiba Hotel, located next to the Cruise Ship Pier.

We have our Boats moored at the Pier of El Cid La Ceiba Hotel, conveniently located just steps from the Cruise Piers.

On our Way to the First Reef

Feel your excitement explode as the powerful eco-friendly engine revs up and we cast off to begin your adventure of a lifetime!

You hardly notice the short trip to the Marine Park because you’re absorbed in the crew’s demonstration of how to use the high-quality snorkeling equipment.

We visit a total of three spots.

Palancar Gardens Reef (the first stop)

Colombia shallows reef.

When it comes to marine life, this area is blessed with extraordinary life forms. For instance, hawksbill sea turtles, as well as the green sea turtle, are probably the first thing you will notice in the waters.

El Cielo Beach (Heaven on Earth as most travelers call it)

On our way back to the pier.

Can we really have packed so much excitement and lifetime memories in just four hours?

Relax on board between dives, with ample shade provided while you sip a cool soft drink, beer or water with our compliments, and excitedly swap experiences with your fellow divers.

All too soon, it’s time to head back to the pier.

Back at the Meeting Point

Once the Tour is over, we’ll go back to our original Meeting Location at the El Cid La Ceiba Hotel (next door to the Cruise Pier) the Place where we first met you in the morning.

From here you can walk back to your Cruise Ship, or take a Taxi back to your Hotel is you’re staying in Cozumel.

As a result, you’re probably already planning your next trip with us, like so many others before you, who return again and again.

TOUR PRICING

You get all this – and much more for just...

By booking Online directly with us, we are able to keep your fees down to rock bottom, while providing you with a true five-star experience.

• Cozumel Marine Park Conservation Fee is INCLUDED in the Price.
• All Fees & Taxes included. No surprises.

Immediately after your payment is processed you’ll receive a Confirmation Email with full directions to our meeting point , and all your Reservation details.

If you can’t print the Confirmation Email because you don’t have access to a printer, simply make a note of the directions and arrive at our meeting point with your passport or any other photo ID.

BOOK WITH CONFIDENCE

My Refund Policy has you covered:

• If there's bad weather on the day of your trip and the harbour master shuts down the port for small boats like mine. I will give you a FULL REFUND.
• If you are coming to Cozumel via Cruise Ship, and your Cruise gets re-routed off Cozumel for any reason. I will give you a FULL REFUND.
• No questions asked.

The CLOCK IS TICKING

As I’ve already mentioned, access to the fragile ecosystems that make up the protected Cozumel Marine Park is severely limited.

Despite this, the eco-friendly nature of our high end glass-bottomed boats, fully equipped with shading and comfortable seating for 22 qualify us to operate ONLY 3 boats.

However, despite being licensed to take 22 passengers, we restrict most parties to 12 so you enjoy maximum comfort and close personal attention at all times, particularly when snorkeling. It’s almost like a private charter.

So, between our 3 boats, we can take a total of 36 passengers.

And, because we are one of very few businesses able to provide the highest quality snorkeling experience and most of our clients come from the cruise ships, bringing in around 20,000 cruise visitors daily - we tend to get booked up lightening fast for every day of the week.

So you now have to come to a fast decision

You can either pause and take ages to ‘think about it’ only to come back later and be dismayed to see your choice of day has been taken.

That means, if you only have that one day for your trip, you’ll either have to forgo the trip entirely or have to settle for a second rate trip which will NOT include the marine life rich reefs of Palancar Gardens and Colombia Shallow Reefs plus the beach party on the beautiful ‘El Cielo’ sandbar.

Instead, you will have to make do with the relatively barren reefs that most tour companies visit which were not considered spectacular enough to be part of the ecology-rich Marine Park that we are licensed to visit.

What’s more, the general tourist area is not protected like the Marine Park, so there is a quite marked difference in the quality and quantity of the marine life.

And the chances are high you will be crammed onto a boat (that might not even have a glass bottom) with 20 or more other folks, severely limiting your enjoyment and perhaps you’ll struggle to understand your guide’s broken English.

You can make the smart move and decide right now which day you want to become the memory of a lifetime by booking our El Cielo Snorkeling Tour that visits the awesome Cozumel Marine Park with its spectacular marine life and finishes in a setting to die for – the aptly named ‘Heaven On Earth’.

Then, once you’ve made your booking, you’ll experience a wonderful feeling of calm, because you’ll know you’ve made the right choice.

So you can relax and look forward to that magical moment when you step onto our boat.

I and all my family are eagerly looking forward to welcoming you to Cozumel and showing you our wonderful Marine Park first hand!

Alberto Novelo

El cielo cozumel snorkeling tour, the excursion summary.

• Yes, our Guides speak English.
• Your choice of 2 convenient start times: 9:30am; and 10:30am.

Why should the best be reserved for others & not you?

Haven’t you worked hard to afford this trip to Cozumel and so don’t you deserve the best that is on offer?

But, despite enjoying our fair share of the very limited licenses empowering us to enter the beautiful protected area of the Cozumel Marine Park, we often have difficulty coping with all the bookings from the 20,000 cruise passengers that arrive in Cozumel daily.

I’d bitterly regret it if – now you know what a wonderland the Marine Park is – your hesitation in booking means you are denied the full experience only a PREMIUM snorkeling service like ours can provide and you have to settle for second best.

So I strongly suggest you check the availability on your chosen day - RIGHT NOW – and then go ahead and book your seats before it's too late.

I’ll leave the last words to Michelle Johnson …

Michelle​ ​Johnson

When you get back you want to go back out the next day!"

Alberto provides an excursion like few others. He takes care of the details so you enjoy a carefree day of snorkeling and basking in the clear blue waters off Cozumel.

So, if you are looking for relaxation and the chance to see things you only imagine or see on TV this is your guide.

Alberto makes it fun and when you get back you want to go back out the next day...with Alberto... Enjoy the trip. Can't tell you all we saw but we saw a lot including a nurse shark and sea turtles.

Frequently Asked Questions

YES. The meeting point for cruise passengers is located directly next door from the Cruise Pier at the Motor Lobby of El Cid La Ceiba Hotel.

You will arrive at the Ferry Pier, which is next door from our meeting point at the Motor Lobby of El Cid La Ceiba Hotel. You will receive full directions with the confirmation of your booking.

We set off at 9.30 am seven days a week and the tour last approximately four and a half hours.

However, if your party has a minimum of ten people, we can make a special trip, by prior arrangement, if you prefer at 1.30 pm any day of the week.

All three of our top quality glass-bottomed boats have a capacity of 22 passengers, but to guarantee your total comfort and personal attention we rarely exceed 12 passengers.

That ensures you have a wide choice of seating and you receive personal attention at all times.

But this does mean we get booked up very quickly.

So booking your seats without delay is the best way to be certain of securing your trip of a lifetime.

You can check our website at any time, night or day, and get a constantly updated completely accurate picture of our availability.

But please note, that can change in a heartbeat.

So – if you see a slot you want – book it right away. Because, with 80% of our bookings coming from the 20,000 daily cruise visitors, available slots tend to disappear as fast as a puddle in the desert.

As you are coming by cruise ship, please remember there will be plenty of other folks all trying to disembark at the same time as you. So pick a departure time at least 30 MINUTES AFTER you are supposed to dock to allow for the delays in embarkation.

You will need to catch a ferry at least ONE HOUR BEFORE our scheduled departure time. Bear in mind our meeting point is about a mile from the Ferry Pier, which is where you will arrive on Cozumel.

You will receive full directions with your emailed booking confirmation.

NO. Unlike other tour companies, the cost of your disposable one time use snorkel tube plus the Marine Park entry fee and the beach party meal of freshly prepared guacamole, salsa, french fries and drinks are all provided, with our compliments, free of extra charge.

NO. This is one expense you will have to carry, because it would not be fair to the roughly 80% of our clients who only have a 50 yard walk to our meeting point if we were to add the cost of your ferry trip to our prices.

NO. This is one expense you will have to carry, because it would not be fair to the roughly 80% of our clients who only have a 50 yard walk to our meeting point if we were to add the cost of your taxi fare to our prices.

In that very rare event, we would immediately issue you with a full refund.

El Cielo Tour in Cozumel Mexico: Ultimate Guide for 2024

Do you want to visit El Cielo Cozumel? You’ve come to the right guide!

El Cielo is an exclusive snorkeling spot in Cozumel, offering an incredible opportunity to snorkel with giant starfish in unbelievably clear turquoise waters.

I’m a travel blogger that lives in Playa del Carmen and I’m here to tell you that El Cielo is the most stunning snorkeling spot you’re going to find in Riviera Maya!

But this remote snorkeling location can only be visited by boat, which means you’ll need to book a tour to get there.

MY TOP PICK

⌚️ Don’t have time to read the full article?

The best El Cielo snorkeling tour is this Cozumel Snorkeling Tour: Palancar, Colombia, and El Cielo Reefs with over 590 5-star reviews!

In this post, I’m sharing everything you need to know about the El Cielo tour in Cozumel , including my top tour recommendations, detailed itinerary information, and tips for visiting.

Ready to find out more about the El Cielo Cozumel tour? Let’s get started!

About El Cielo Cozumel

Only accessible by boat, El Cielo in Cozumel is a snorkeling spot where you can see a surplus of starfish and snorkel in unbelievably turquoise waters.

This El Cielo tour is one of the most popular things to do in Cozumel , which will take you to El Cielo in addition to some impressive snorkeling at world-renowned coral reefs.

Of all the snorkeling tours in Cozumel that I’ve done, El Cielo is honestly the most impressive with its bright turquoise water and has been by far my favorite snorkeling experience!

Where is El Cielo?

El Cielo (“Heaven” in Spanish) is located on the southwestern tip of Cozumel island in Mexico. 

You may hear it referred to as “Playa El Cielo” but it’s not really a beach per se but more of a shallower area of water right off the coast of the island.   

It’s considered one of the best snorkeling spots in Cozumel and is known for its abundance of starfish and crystal clear water.

How to Get to El Cielo Cozumel

El Cielo can only be visited by boat, which makes getting there a little more difficult.

You can either book a tour or hire a boat directly from one of the beaches on Cozumel. 

I have done both options and booking a tour is definitely easier, especially if you’re not familiar with getting around Cozumel on your own.

Book an El Cielo Tour

If you’re coming from Playa del Carmen , the easiest way to visit El Cielo is to book a tour ahead of time online. 

⚠️ El Cielo snorkeling tours are also sold by street vendors on 5th Avenue and while these tours may be cheaper, I would NOT recommend this option.

Here’s why: I actually did this the very first time I went to El Cielo and when we arrived at the meeting point in Cozumel, the tour operator had absolutely no record of our tour purchase and almost didn’t let us go on the tour–it was very stressful and was almost a huge disappointment 😭

For peace of mind, book a tour online so you have an electronic record of your tour confirmation and dedicated customer service to resolve any issues.

El Cielo Tour Recommendations

There are many El Cielo Cozumel snorkeling tours available to fit your needs, and some that include roundtrip transportation and hotel pick-up. 

The tour leaves from the marina in Cozumel so if you’re comfortable taking the ferry and getting to Cozumel from Playa del Carmen on your own, I would recommend booking a tour that meets in Cozumel.

Otherwise, an all-inclusive tour that includes ferry tickets and pickup from hotels in Playa del Carmen or the Riviera Maya would be your easiest and most hassle-free option. 

Here are my El Cielo tour recommendations:

• El Cielo Tour that meets in Cozumel: BOOK HERE ▶︎
• El Cielo Tour that includes hotel pickup: BOOK HERE ▶︎
• El Cielo Private Tour: BOOK HERE ▶︎

How much does the El Cielo Cozumel tour cost?

The cost of El Cielo Cozumel tours will vary depending on which transportation option you prefer.

The prices for the tour generally start around $65 USD if you’re meeting in Cozumel.

The price can go up to $150+ USD for the more all-inclusive tours that include pickup from hotels in Riviera Maya .

Keep in mind for the tours that meet in Cozumel, you will still need to pay for roundtrip ferry tickets, which cost an additional $33 USD.

Travelista Tip:  If you have a group of 6 of more, consider a  private tour to El Cielo which comes out to be only about $70 USD per person.

Take a boat from a beach club in Cozumel

Another option for visiting El Cielo is taking a boat from a beach club on Cozumel.

You can do this from Playa Palancar , which is a stunning beach on the southern part of the island. 

On the beach, you’ll find a dive shop that offers boat tours to El Cielo and nearby reefs.

This is a cheaper option and offers the same tour experience but you still have to get to Cozumel on your own, as well as take a taxi to Playa Palancar, which costs about $25 USD each way.

What’s included in the El Cielo tour?

Again, what’s included in the tour will vary depending on the tour operator and if you select a tour with transportation included. 

But here’s what’s included in the majority of El Cielo tours:

• Roundtrip boat trip from Cozumel marina
• Snorkeling at two different coral reefs–Palancar Reef and Colombia Reef
• Snorkeling with starfish at El Cielo
• Leisurely stop at “El Cielito” beach
• Snorkeling equipment
• Life jackets
• Bottled water, soft drinks, and beer (2 per person)

El Cielo Tour Itinerary

The tour start time will vary depending on whether you choose a tour with hotel pickup in Playa del Carmen or the Rivera Maya. 

Pickup from your hotel can be as early as 7:00AM or if you’re meeting in Cozumel, the departure time will likely be around 11:00AM.

⚠️ Keep in mind the tour leaves from the Cozumel ferry at this time so you have to plan ahead to take the ferry from Playa del Carmen to Cozumel which leaves approximately every hour .

Once you arrive at the ferry, you will meet your tour guide at the designated meeting point outside of downtown San Miguel de Cozumel and they will escort you to the boat nearby. 

You’ll then set off to begin your snorkeling experience at two different reefs–Palancar and Colombia, followed by snorkeling at El Cielo, and a leisurely stop at El Cielito beach. The tour duration is approximately 4 hours .

First Stop: Palancar Reef

After departing from the marina near the Cozumel ferry, you’ll cruise down the coast and the first stop on the tour is snorkeling at Palancar Reef. 

The Cozumel reef system is actually the second longest in the world, only second to Australia’s Great Barrier Reef.

You’ll be outfitted with snorkeling masks and life jackets and then you’ll be ready to jump into the sea! 

The water at Palancar Reef is about 20-40 feet deep and there are many colorful fish and different types of coral to be seen.

Second Stop: Colombia Reef

The next stop on the tour is Colombia Reef, which is just a short boat ride away.  Colombia Reef is a bit shallower at around 15-30 feet deep. 

The snorkeling here was pretty similar to Palancar Reef, and in my opinion not all that impressive–the visibility wasn’t great on the day that we went!

Third Stop: El Cielo

The third stop of the tour is visiting El Cielo, which is definitely the highlight of the tour! 

I can’t even explain how pretty the color of the water is–the pictures really don’t do it justice!

And the amount of starfish you get to see at Cielo is really spectacular–it’s definitely the best place to snorkel in Cozumel!

The water at El Cielo is about 7-8 feet deep so it’s still pretty deep but you can choose to remove your life jacket if you wish. 

It was really fun to dive down for an up close view of the starfish.  Check out my video below for a better look!

Last Stop: El Cielito Cozumel

After visiting El Cielo, you’ll then head over to Playa El Cielito (“Little Heaven”), which is a very shallow beach nearby with equally stunning turquoise water. 

The boat will anchor here and you’ll be served some light snacks like sliced cheese and jicama, as well as beverages while getting to relax in the shallow water.

Playa Cielito is really a beyond gorgeous place to rest and relax after all the excitement of snorkeling and starfish hunting.

After visiting El Cielito, you’ll get back on the boat and return to the Cozumel ferry.

What to Do After the Cozumel El Cielo Tour

The tour will end around 2:00PM so you’ll still have some free time in Cozumel if you don’t book an all-inclusive tour.  

There are many things to do in Cozumel but I would highly recommend visiting Playa Palancar , as it’s one of the prettiest beaches I’ve seen on the island.

Playa Palancar is about a 30 minute drive from the ferry and the taxi will cost around $25 USD each way but it’s definitely worth the trip. 

There are a couple of different beach clubs there where you can rent lounge chairs and enjoy some beach snacks and frozen cocktails.  A perfect way to end the day!

What to Wear on the El Cielo Tour

Here’s what I recommend wearing on the El Cielo Snorkeling Tour:

• One-Piece Swimsuit: For most of the tour you will be in the water so you’ll definitely need to wear a swimsuit. I always prefer to wear a one-piece swimsuit when going on snorkeling tours since they provide more coverage and less hassle with the life vests and snorkeling equipment.
• Swimsuit coverup: Wear a coverup or shorts and a tank top over your swimsuit to be comfortable on the ferry ride.
• Waterproof sandals or flip flops: Wear comfortable sandals or flip flops that you don’t mind getting wet. You’ll remove them as soon as you get on the boat.
• Sun Hat: If you want to bring a hat, make sure to wear one with a wind lanyard or that fits securely on your head as it can easily blow off when you’re traveling by boat.

What to Bring on the El Cielo Tour

Here are a few essential items I would recommend bringing on the El Cielo tour:

• Biodegradable Sunscreen: Be sure to wear biodegradable sunscreen as regular sunscreen is prohibited on the tour as it is damaging to the coral reefs.
• Beach Towel: You’ll definitely want to bring a towel to dry off after snorkeling. These microfiber beach towels are great as they are lightweight and dry quickly.
• GoPro or waterproof camera: Be sure to bring a GoPro (or the less expensive AKASO Brave ) waterproof camera to capture your experience. El Cielo offers an amazing photo opportunity for an up close view of the starfish.
• Snorkel Gear: You can also bring your own snorkel set if you prefer.  Snorkeling equipment is provided on the tour but having your own ensures cleanliness and the best fit.
• Change of Clothes: It’s also a good idea to bring a change of clothes to change into after the tour so you’re not stuck in a wet swimsuit for the return trip.
• Cash for tips: I would also recommend bringing some extra cash to tip the tour guides at the end of the tour. This is something I often forget and then feel terrible at the end of an amazing tour experience.

✅ Beach Towel

🇲🇽 Traveling to Mexico soon?

These are the Mexico travel resources I use and recommend:

🏨 Hotels : I always find the best deals for Mexico hotels and resorts on Expedia or Booking.com . If you prefer a vacation rental, check VRBO as they are often cheaper than AirBnB’s added fees!

✈️ Flights : I recommend using Skyscanner for the best Mexico flight deals. Be sure to sign up for their price alerts for your preferred travel dates.

🚗 Rental Cars : I recommend using Discover Cars because you can compare multiple car rental companies and see detailed ratings for overall value, ease of pick-up, efficiency of agents, car condition, and overall time spent.

🚙 Cancun Airport Transportation : I recommend booking a private transfer with Cancun Airport Transportation for the quickest and most hassle-free option!

🤿 Tours & Activities: I always use Viator or GetYourGuide for booking tours and activities in Mexico. You can cancel up to 24 hours before the tour for a full refund, plus they have excellent customer service if you were to have any issues.

🚨 Travel Insurance: After my Dad broke his hand in a taxi accident in Playa del Carmen, I always recommend buying travel insurance before your trip for added peace of mind! I recommend Travel Insurance Master for short trips or Safety Wing for digital nomads.

☀️ Biodegradable Sunscreen : Don’t forget to add biodegradable sunscreen to your Mexico packing list ! Regular sunscreen is prohibited when swimming in the ocean and cenotes in Mexico, so you’ll need to pack some biodegradable sunscreen for sun protection. I recommend Sun Bum Sunscreen , which is reef-friendly, vegan, and cruelty-free.

El Cielo Cozumel Tour: Ultimate Travel Guide

Are you planning to visit El Cielo Cozumel and snorkel with starfish in stunning blue waters? You’re in the right spot! Check out my complete guide to learn everything you must know about the El Cielo Tour in Cozumel.

About El Cielo Cozumel

Only accessible via the boat. El Cielo in Cozumel is a snorkeling destination where you will see an abundance of starfish and dip in the stunning clear waters.

A tour called the El Cielo tour is one of the most sought-after tourist attractions in Cozumel. It will bring visitors through El Cielo in addition to incredible snorkeling in the world-renowned coral reefs.

Where is El Cielo?

El Cielo (“Heaven” in Spanish) is located on the southwest coast of Cozumel, the island of Mexico.

It’s often referred to as “Playa El Cielo”, but it’s not the beach itself but rather a more shallow section of water just near the shore in the middle of the island.

It’s one of the most popular snorkeling destinations in Cozumel and is renowned for its abundance of starfish and crystal clear water.

How To Get To El Cielo Cozumel

El Cielo can only be accessible by boat, making the journey more challenging. You can arrange a tour or rent boats or a catamaran direct from Cozumel.

I’ve tried both as well. Booking a trip is more spartan, particularly if you’re not familiar with the area of Cozumel by yourself.

Book A Tour

If you’re travelling via Playa del Carmen, the most convenient method to get to El Cielo is to book the tour in advance on the internet.

Street vendors along 5th Avenue sell El Cielo snorkeling tours, and while these tours are cheaper than the other options, I would  not  recommend this choice.

I’ve done it before, and when we got to the location of the meeting, the tour operator didn’t have any information about our purchase and was almost refusing to allow us to go on the tour.

To be sure of your booking Book your trip online so that you get confirmation of your tour and dedicated customer service that can resolve any problems.

Tour Recommendations

Numerous El Cielo Cozumel snorkeling tours are suitable for your needs, including round-trip transportation and hotel pickup.

The tour departs from the dock in Cozumel; therefore, it’s a good idea to take the ferry and reach Cozumel by yourself. I suggest making a reservation for a tour that begins in Cozumel.

If not, an all-inclusive trip that includes ferry tickets and pickup of your accommodation at Playa del Carmen or the Riviera Maya is the most convenient and hassle-free choice.

the El Cielo Cozumel tour cost?

The price associated with El Cielo Cozumel tours will depend on your choice of transport. Prices for the tour typically start at USD 55 when you’re meeting in Cozumel.

The cost can rise from $130 or more USD on more comprehensive tours, including pick-up of Hotels in Riviera Maya.

Be aware that for tours that start in Cozumel, they require to purchase round-trip ferry tickets that cost an additional USD 25.

Take a boat from a beach club in Cozumel

Another option to visit El Cielo is renting an excursion boat from a beach club on Cozumel. This can be done starting from Playa Palancar, an incredible beach located at the southern end of the Island.

There’s a dive shop at the beach offering boat trips towards El Cielo and nearby reefs.

This is the cheapest alternative and provides the same experience, but you’ll still need to travel to Cozumel on your own and get a taxi ride to Playa Palancar, which costs around USD 15 each way.

What’s included in the El Cielo tour?

What’s included in the tour can vary based on the tour operator and when you opt for a tour that includes transportation. Here’s what’s fit for the vast majority of El Cielo tours:

• Roundtrip boat trip departing from Cozumel marina
• Snorkeling at two coral reefs: the Palancar Reef and Colombia Reef
• Snorkeling with starfish in El Cielo
• Stop for a relaxing break at “El Cielito” beach
• Snorkeling equipment
• Life jackets
• Soft drinks, bottle-sealed water and beers (2 per person)

El Cielo Tour Itinerary

The tour’s start time depends on whether you select an excursion with hotel pickup in Playa del Carmen or the Rivera Maya.

Transfers from your hotel may start as early as 7:00 morning or, if you’re meeting in Cozumel, the departure time is likely around 11:00 am.

Remember that this tour departs on the Cozumel ferry around this point; therefore, you must prepare for your ferry ride from Playa del Carmen to Cozumel, which leaves every hour.

After arriving at the ferry terminal, you’ll greet your tour guides at the specified meeting place just outside central San Miguel de Cozumel, and then they’ll take you to the nearby boat.

Then, you’ll begin your snorkeling journey on two different reefs – Palancar and Colombia. Then, you’ll go the snorkeling experience on El Cielo and a relaxing visit to El Cielito beach. The duration of the tour is around 3 hours.

The First Stop: Palancar Reef

After leaving the marina near Cozumel, you’ll depart from the marina. Cozumel ferry port, passengers will travel across the coastline. The initial stop of your tour will be snorkeling on Palancar Reef.

It is believed that the Cozumel Reef system is the second most extended reef system in the world and is second after Australia’s Great Barrier Reef.

You’ll be equipped with snorkeling masks and life jackets, and you’ll be able to jump into the ocean !

The water in Palancar Reef is about 20-40 feet deep. There are a variety of colorful fish as well as various coral species to see.

The Second Stop Colombia Reef

The next destination on tour is Colombia Reef, which is only a brief boat ride from the mainland. Colombia Reef is a bit smaller at 15-30 feet deep.

This snorkeling was like Palancar Reef, and in my view, not that amazing (at most on the day we went).

Third Stop: El Cielo

The third stop on tour was El Cielo. To me, El Cielo was the highlight of the trip.

I don’t know how beautiful the watercolour is, and how many species of starfish were visible was genuinely fantastic. El Cielo is definitely the most ideal spot to snorkel in Cozumel!

The water is around 7-8 feet deep. It’s profound. You may opt to take off your life jacket should you want.

Last Stop: El Cielito Cozumel

After visiting El Cielo, you’ll go towards Playa El Cielito (“Little Heaven”). That is a highly shallow beach with stunning turquoise waters.

The boat will be anchored, and guests will be served drinks and snacks while relaxing in the shallow waters.

Playa Cielito is a breathtaking spot to unwind and unwind after the adrenaline of starfish and snorkel hunts.

After exploring El Cielito, You’ll return to the ferry to get back to Cozumel.

What to do after the Cozumel El Cielo tour

The tour is scheduled to end at 2 pm, which means you’ll be able to spend some time at leisure in Cozumel even if you do not book an entire tour.

There are a lot of activities to enjoy in Cozumel. However, I’d strongly advise taking a trip to Playa Palancar, since it’s one of the most beautiful beaches I’ve ever seen on the entire island.

Playa Palancar is about a 15 minutes ride from where the ferry is, and the taxi cost is around USD 15 per way. However, it’s well worth the drive.

There are several beach clubs where you can lease lounge chairs and enjoy drinks and snacks from the beach. The perfect way to wind down your day!

What should you wear to the El Cielo tour?

Most of the time, you’ll be in the water, so it is essential to wear an appropriate swimsuit.

I prefer wearing a one-piece swimming suit when I go on snorkeling trips since they offer excellent coverage and are less stressful with life gear and snorkeling equipment.

Also, you’ll need an easy cover-up, flip-flops, sandals, and a sun hat. If you’re wearing a hat, put it well on your head, as it’s likely to blow away on a boat ride.

It’s recommended to carry an extra set of clothes to change into following the trip so that you don’t get trapped in a wet swimming suit on the return journey.

What do you need to bring for the El Cielo tour?

Here are a few important things I’d recommend taking for this tour: El Cielo tour:

• Biodegradable sunscreen:  Be sure to wear biodegradable sunscreen since regular sunscreen isn’t allowed during the trip as it causes harm to coral reefs.
• Beach Towel:  It is essential to have towels to dry your skin after snorkeling. The Microfiber Beach Towels are ideal since they’re lightweight and dry fast.
• GoPro or waterproof camera  Make sure you bring a GoPro or waterproof camera to record your adventure. El Cielo offers a unique photo opportunity to capture close-up views of the starfish.
• Snorkel Equipment:  You can also bring your own snorkeling set. Snorkeling equipment is included during the tour, but having your own will ensure cleanliness and the most comfortable fit.
• Snacks:  Feel free to bring a few snacks to eat while you relax on El Cielo beach Cozumel. Our tour was just served slices of cheese and fresh Jicama.
• Cash to tip the tour guide:  I would also suggest bringing money to pay the guide after your tour. It’s something that I frequently overlook and then am sad after an unforgettable tour.

Are you all set to go on a tour of El Cielo Cozumel? I hope this guide to El Cielo tours was helpful and that you get to see this stunning area!

It’s definitely among the best snorkeling trips I’ve ever been on.

For additional Playa del Carmen snorkeling excursions, I have compiled a guide to whale sharks swimming within Isla Mujeres and a snorkeling tour and cenote within Puerto Morelos.

One of the reasons so many choose us and continue to visit year after year,   is because we offer small group tours that allow our guests to have a more personalized experience with us. Every tour is a unique experience, that is designed to accommodate that particular group on board.

We offer our guests so much more and being a small family owned business, each one of our family members help contribute, to make sure everyone has an extraordinary experience no matter what. We are the only tour operator who picks up their guests directly from the cruise pier and also pick you up from your resort, without having to deal with the hassle of taking a taxi to the marina and look for their snorkel boat or deal with taxis overcharging you.

All of our snorkel tours are small group tours, where our guests have plenty space to move around and feel comfortable. We do have much larger yachts that accommodate for up to 25 people, but these yachts are for private snorkel tours only.

Most of our guests are repeat customers who come year after year to enjoy our Snorkel Cozumel Cielo tour.

What does our tour offer?

Our boats are all designed to maneuver in the shallow waters of El Cielo. When snorkeling in Cozumel with our famous snorkel tour, you will notice that the locations we go are only occupied by divers, because we are pretty much the only snorkel tour operator who takes our guests to the best reefs, where they will see the most magnificent underwater sights available in Cozumel. We almost always see sea turtles. If you have snorkeled in Cozumel before and have suggestions, we’ll make sure to take them into consideration and visit your desired snorkel location. 99% of the Snorkel tours in Cozumel overcharge and take their guests to the local reefs for only 2 hours so they can make more money by taking people on several trips a day. There is no way you will get to experience the best reefs in Cozumel with only 2 hours, because it takes more than 30 minutes to get to the best reefs, and we have very fast boats which get you there much faster. Only a small percentage of boats have their Marine Park passes, and 99% of them are dive boat, not snorkel boats. All of our boats are certified and have Marine Park Passes, so were able to take you where most all other Cozumel snorkel tours can not. Make sure to always ask them if they have their Marine park passes if they plan on taking you to Palancar Reef, Columbia Reef or El Cielo.

Since we only take a small group of people, we will be able to provide personal assistance to those who may need it, and who may not feel as confident in the water. So if you never went snorkeling or aren’t a strong swimmer, don’t worry, our snorkel guides are specialized in helping you get in and out of the water, and assist you while your in. Our boats make it much easier to get in and out of the water like most of the other snorkel & dive boats available.

After snorkeling the best reefs in Cozumel, which are Palancar Reef, Columbia Reef & Palancar Gardens (Shallow), we’ll head over to El Cielo Cozumel. Depending on the group that day, we may go to Palancar Gardens first, since it is a shallow reef. El Cielo means “HEAVEN”, and fits it perfectly, because it’s the most spectacular place in the Caribbean Sea. Our boats are able to navigate to the perfect shallow spots in El Cielo, and making it very easy to get in and out of the water. The water in Cielo is very shallow usually only waste deep, and is known as a sandbar. El Cielo is only accessible by boat and is about a half mile from the coast and 30 minutes from the cruise ships. There’s powdered white sand that massages your feet every step you take, so you’re able to walk around barefoot without any worries. We have floats that you may use to float around and relax. You’ll have your choice of drinks, which include beer, Liquor (Tequila of course, or Vodka etc. and take special requests), Soda and Iced cold water. You’re more than welcome to bring your own favorite beverage as well, or let us know so we have it ready for you. Our snorkel guides will prepare freshly made fruits, guacamole, and special requests you may have. Our guacamole is very famous and loved by all!

Being a small snorkel tour operator, it allows us to give our guests a more fun and entertaining experience. We love what we do and make sure our guests have an amazing experience no matter what.

​ Transportation Included & No  Hidden fees

What will you see?

Our family offers the best Cozumel snorkeling experience, taking you to the most breathtaking reefs in the area, including Palancar Reef and Colombia Reef. Unlike other operators who only provide a 2-hour tour, our Cozumel snorkeling adventure lasts over 4 hours, giving you ample time to fully immerse yourself in the beauty of each coral reef. We also take you to a secret location in Cozumel where you can snorkel in a shallow reef filled with vibrant sea fans and other colorful marine life. You may even have the chance to swim alongside a sea turtle! Our small group tours, led by certified guides, provide a personalized and comfortable experience for all guests.

After experiencing the best snorkeling spots in Cozumel, we like to treat our guests to a visit to El Cielo Cozumel. This shallow area in the Caribbean, located about a half mile from the Cozumel shore, boasts crystal-clear waters and soft white sand that feels like a massage with every step you take. It's the perfect place to unwind and relax after your snorkeling adventure in Cozumel.

Starfish Beach Cozumel is the perfect spot to relax and unwind after an exciting snorkeling tour in Cozumel. The water at this beach reaches your waist and offers the ideal place to cool off and enjoy some refreshments and delicious food. Spend your day at Starfish Beach Cozumel and create unforgettable memories.

Watch as we prepare our famous guacamole right in front of you. We offer a variety of drinks such as soda, beer (including Corona, Sol, etc.), liquor (including Tequila, etc.), and iced cold water. Our guests are welcome to have as many drinks as they want, and we always ensure that there is plenty of food and drinks on board. In addition, we serve freshly cut delicious fruits to our guests.

We want to make sure that our guests have the best possible experience on our snorkel tour, so if you have any special requests for food or drinks, please let us know in the additional comments section on the reservation page. We are happy to accommodate your requests, including birthday celebrations or any other special event, to ensure that you have an unforgettable time on our Cozumel snorkel tour.

We provide transportation, and located next to the cruise piers where we use the dock there to pick up our guests. Marine park fees included. Make sure that the tour operator has Marine Park permits, because many do not and are pirates and are not allowed to snorkel/dive in the Marine Park, which includes Palancar Reef, Colombia Reef & El Cielo Sandbar. 80% of boats do not have these, so make sure they do. They no longer provide permits, and if you are on a boat that doesn't, it could ruin your day in Cozumel if they are stopped. So avoid purchasing tours from vendors outside cruise ship piers and ferry. 

With Cozumel being one of the best snorkeling and diving destinations, the opportunities to observe sea creatures are endless. Our team of professional snorkel guides have been working with us for many years and are highly experienced in navigating the reef system to find specific sea creatures. It's common for us to encounter sea turtles, as Cozumel has an excellent ecosystem for them. If you have any specific requests for sea creatures you'd like to see, feel free to ask and we will take you to the best location to spot them. Our Cozumel snorkeling tours take you to the most beautiful and exclusive locations, including the breathtaking El Cielo Cozumel bay (also known as Starfish Cozumel) where you can truly experience paradise during your visit.
