The stunning island of Cozumel awaits you with its picturesque beaches, sunny weather and exciting adventures - a perfect holiday destination for you and your family! One of the most coveted activities of the island, and all of Riviera Maya, is that of swimming with dolphins. Make your way to Dolphin Discovery Cozumel and spend a day full of fun and adventure. With the Swim Adventure program, you can befriend dolphins and even caress, touch, hug and kiss them. What’s more, you can even ride on the belly of a dolphin and get pushed by it while holding onto a boogie board! Your ticket also includes entry to Chankanaab National Reef Park, known for its paradise-like natural beauty - a result of the efforts made to preserve the natural flora and fauna of the region. Go snorkeling in the turquoise waters of the island and treat yourself to a delicious lunch buffet with an open bar, after. It’s the ideal tropical vacation.
