What our customers say
Posted on Google Mariana HernandezTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Puerto Morelos Excursions MExplor superó mis expectativas. Desde el inicio, el equipo fue muy atento y profesional, creando un ambiente agradable y seguro. La experiencia fue divertida, bien organizada y me permitió disfrutar al máximo de los atractivos naturales de Puerto Morelos. Sin duda, volvería a vivir esta aventura y la recomendaría a quienes buscan una experiencia inolvidable.Posted on Google Małgorzata RozwadowskaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had the undeniable pleasure of taking part in multiple activities with MExplor in Puerto Morelos. I went diving on the beautiful local reefs, both from shore and the boat, I went snorkeling in stunning cenotes Siete Bocas and Kin Ha, in the second one I also booked an underwater photoshoot, my first experience of this kind. I have also booked multiple salsa and bachata classes to get myself better and tried soul for the very first time. Needless to say, my time in Puerto Morelos was full of experiences and I'm very glad I chose MExplor team as my guides to the fun times, I've also learnt a lot from professional dive guides and dance teachers. Their range is wide and I cannot wait to see how they develop further, because the quality of experiences is absolutely top, it was the best vacation time I've ever had 🤿🫧📸💃Posted on Google Adriana ContrerasTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Fue una experiencia increíble, y los guías Esteban y Mal son súper amables y llenos de empatía porque lleve a mi mamá y otra pareja de gente mayor a 70años y los cuido increíble y los guió a cada paso. Los disfrutamos todos mucho y son un ambienta acogedor y lleno de amor por lo que hacen y el país. Gracias a los 2 porque nos hicieron crear un recuerdo inigualable.Posted on Google andrea GomezTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

FAQs
How to get there?
Cab or Private Transport: The most direct way. The journey takes approximately 20-25 minutes, depending on traffic. You can book a private transportation service in advance for convenience.
Car Rental: If you prefer to explore on your own, renting a car at the airport is an excellent option. Just follow Federal Highway 307 south, and in about 20-25 minutes you will arrive in Puerto Morelos.
ADO bus: Although there are no direct buses from the airport to Puerto Morelos, you can take an ADO bus to Playa del Carmen and then a cab or colectivo to Puerto Morelos. This option is cheaper, but also slower, taking about 1 hour and 30 minutes in total.
Best seasons to go
High season (December to April): This is the best time to visit if you are looking for dry and cool weather. Temperatures range between 24°C and 28°C, with low humidity. It is ideal for outdoor activities such as diving and snorkeling. However, it is the busiest season and prices tend to be higher.
Summer Season (May to August): During these months, temperatures are warmer, reaching up to 32°C, with higher humidity. It is an excellent time to enjoy the beaches and explore the cenotes, although there may be occasional rains.
Low Season (September to November): This is hurricane season, with a higher probability of rain and storms. However, this is the best time to avoid crowds and enjoy lower lodging rates.
Water Temperatures
Water Temperature: The waters of Puerto Morelos maintain a warm temperature throughout the year, ranging from 26°C in winter to 29°C in summer, which makes them perfect for diving and snorkeling in any season.
