Cancún Ultimate Adventure: ATV Tour, Jet Ski, Catamaran Tour and Snorkeling

If you are an adventure lover, this is the tour for you! Enjoy a mix of sporting activities in one day with this adventure package.

Your day will begin with a catamaran tour, a two-hulled boat that is very stable and practical to sail. You will enjoy the spectacular view of the Cancún Bay and the ocean panorama. While sailing, you can try parasailing, an activity between sailing and parachuting: you will remain suspended in the air pulled by the boat and a parachute.
