The waters near Isla Contoy are very rich in nutrients that serve as food for the plankton that constitutes the food base of more than 234 species of fish identified in the area, including the majestic whale sharks and stingrays that feed near their coasts and the turtles that nest there.
The Ixlaché reef south of Contoy marks the beginning of the second-longest reef barrier in the world, the Great Mesoamerican Reef. Beautiful species of corals, fish, and organisms of great commercial value such as spiny lobster and pink snail abound.
Swim with rays and turtles, nurse sharks and a huge amount of fish.

I can not recommend this company highly enough. Myself and my partner went out for this day trip and it was beyond amazing! Eduardo and his team were fantastic. Such lovely people and such a wonderful day. We got to Contoy and saw loads of giant sea turtles and then two large mantas - so we all jumped in and snorkelled with them: it was incredible. One was at least three metres wide. Then we carried on to a beautiful desert island full of beautiful birds and stopped for lunch. More snorkelling along the way to a beautiful reef and then a beer in the shallow waters of the beautiful Isla Mujeres beach
We had a truly magical day and it really was the trip of a lifetime. Thanks Eduardo and team.
