On Isla Mujeres Water Tours operates private and group outings in the waters around Isla Mujeres and Cancun. Its program includes MUSA snorkeling, seasonal whale-shark excursions, fishing charters, sunset cruises and custom trips that combine activities, all aboard a 33-foot boat with open seating, shade and cushioned areas. It suits travelers who want a locally based operator rather than a large ferry-style tour.

Whale-shark encounters are seasonal and depend on permitted operating conditions and the presence of wildlife, so no sighting is guaranteed.
Boat, comfort and group planning
The operator describes its vessel as 33 feet long, with a wide seating area, shade and cushioned seating, and says it can accommodate up to 15 people, though the practical fit depends on the trip and equipment. The site also notes that the onboard restroom is not currently available during whale-shark adventures, an important detail for families and longer outings. A private trip adds scheduling flexibility but does not remove marine safety rules or weather limits.
Inclusions
Depending on the outing, the official site mentions refreshments, snacks, fishing supplies and freshly prepared food. These vary by trip, so snorkel gear, towels, permits, dock fees, fishing licenses and gratuity are worth clarifying for the specific booking.
Snorkeling and wildlife etiquette
MUSA and reef snorkeling require comfort in open water and the ability to follow crew instructions. Do not touch marine life, stand on coral or leave waste behind. On whale-shark trips, keep the distance and conduct required by the guide and current regulations. If your group wants to mix activities, one or two main goals usually work better than an overloaded list, since travel time, weather and ability limit how much fits into one charter.
