Overview

Experience two of the Riviera Maya’s most remarkable natural environments in one unforgettable day, combining snorkeling in the Caribbean Sea with an underground expedition through Río Secreto.

Your adventure begins at Puerto Morelos National Reef Park, part of the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef, the second-largest coral reef system in the world. Accompanied by an experienced crew, snorkel through clear turquoise waters and discover colorful coral formations, tropical fish, rays, and the rich marine life that makes this protected area one of the Mexican Caribbean’s most beautiful snorkeling destinations.

After exploring the reef, continue into the jungle to discover the Río Secreto Natural Reserve. Hidden beneath the surface is an extraordinary underground river where you’ll walk and swim through crystal-clear waters surrounded by ancient stalactites, stalagmites, and limestone formations shaped over millions of years.

Guided in small groups by knowledgeable professionals, you’ll explore this spectacular subterranean environment while learning about its geological importance and the conservation efforts that help preserve it.

After a day filled with marine exploration and underground adventure, relax and enjoy a buffet lunch with refreshing non-alcoholic beverages before returning.

Combining the vibrant underwater world of the Caribbean with the mysterious beauty of Río Secreto, Salty & Sweet offers a unique way to experience two completely different natural wonders in a single day. Round-trip transportation is available from Riviera Maya, Puerto Morelos, and Cancún. A marine dock fee of USD $20 per person is not included and must be paid directly at Marina El Cid.
