Tour Departures
All 3-, 4-, and 5-hour tours have morning and afternoon departures. The morning schedule starts as early as 8:30 AM and returns by 1:30 PM. The evening schedule starts at 2:00 PM and returns by 7:00 PM.
Departure times depend on the tour chosen and the vessel’s availability, but we always work with the clients to find the most optimal time for their tour.
If you book an 8-hour tour, it’s open to depart anytime. Please note, however, that the sun sets around 6:30 PM, and most clients prefer to return before dark. The latest we can return to the marina is 7:30 PM.

Of course, we always want to offer clients the best possible experience when chartering a tour, but the weather in the Riviera Maya can be tricky to predict.
The tour operator will cancel and provide a full refund if there is heavy rain.
When the ocean is rough due to high winds, the tours utilize an area called “La Bocana” just outside the Puerto Aventuras Marina, which is completely protected from waves and ensures a very pleasant “tour” in case of windy conditions. The water is chest deep, and guests can enjoy all the services that the original tour included, like the full open bar and all the food offered.
In the event of rough seas, the captains of the vessel always has the final say if it’s safe to go out into the open water. If the conditions are deemed safe, the captain will consult with guests to see if you would still like to go out or prefer to stay in the protected La Bocana area.
If you decide to go to La Bocana and later want to return earlier than scheduled, the tour operator can refund the hours not spent on the vessel.
