Dive into the Caribbean for an adventure in a submarine and explore the underwater world off the coast of Cancun.

Submarine tours are growing in popularity, as they allow visitors to see eye-to-eye with many aquatic species without having to pull on a wet suit.

Explore the Punta Nizuc Coral Reef part of the Great Mesoamerican Reef located off the south end of Cancun, and watch rainbow-colored parrot fish swim along as giant rays gracefully glide through the crystal clear waters.

The Great Mesoamerican Reef extends 450 miles from Punta Nizuc to the Bay of Islands in Honduras and is home to more than 100 species of coral, 164 species of reef dwelling fish and larger sea creatures like sea turtles and dolphins.

Some tours in Cancun may have a glass bottom submarine that allow visitors to see the colorful coral reefs and smaller fish that live in them, while others have personal submarines that allow visitors to have a more private and unique interaction with the reef and its inhabitants.

Exploring the underwater terrain will make your vacation to Cancun one that you will never forget.
