You either pay the entrance fee which is 100 MXN or spend 200 MXN per person in the restaurant (which obviously has outrageous prices) to be able to use the premises.
You can spot colorful fishes and corals however the reef which is close to the shore is fenced and you cannot swim there. They also grow corals in the sea.
Because of the ridiculously high prices (I know, it’s Riviera Maya ) I don’t think it should be rated more stars.

Olga and Jersey were fantastic and very friendly. Loved our time here! Food was good but over priced. The atmosphere is perfect for what you would imagine of the Cozumel West Coast, but the fact that can walk from your table to a snorkeling dream- just truly amazing!
This is a gem of a place! So thankful for the hospitality and experience.

We were looking for a place that the kids could snorkel – we weren’t sure where to go that had availability since it was a very busy tourist day and we didn’t “plan”. We ended up finding this place a it was one of the closer ones compared to others to cruise port – and it was great. It wasn’t busy at all – the highlight was the snorkeling and gorgeous waters – they have good drinks, the customer service was wonderful, super sweet people. This is a very, very causal area that you can get in snorkeling, good drinks (unfortunately we didn’t have time to eat there but food looks great on reviews!) – and just do some relaxing in a quiet setting without the hustle and bustle. There are a bunch of other places with more amenities or more updated outdoor furniture, but for us, the snorkeling and quiet & relaxing atmosphere + great service was enough to make this an enjoyable stop!

The location of the place gives you possibility to snorkel right next to the shallow reefs, those areas are protected by buoys and that’s great for saving them, you can still see plenty of sea life at a close proximity, wonderful place for an easy snorkeling experience.
Food was super scarce at a high price, and the quality wasn’t best – gave me a terrible stomach burning right away. We ordered 2 portions of fish tacos and 2 local beers, got three tiny-tiny tortillas with a teaspoon of fish filling on each. Ended up paying 70 usd. They are also charging for their bank fees if you pay with a card! And the necessity of tips was mentioned and emphasized multiple times, to the point that it felt like extortion.
The place itself is pretty rundown – broken plastic chairs, one shower outside for all, cramped toilet and 1 changing space. We came on Christmas afternoon, so there were hardly any people, hard to imagine how to use the amenities if the place is crowded

The place is easygoing, more relaxed than some other places around there and perhaps also less crowded. The entrance is MXN 200 or otherwise you may choose to consume at least MXN 300 in food or drinks. Obviously, the second option makes more sense.
Food wise, we had guacamole which was great. Can’t see much more as we otherwise got a couple of beers only.
The snorkelling, WOW! It is some of the best I’ve seen in my 4 days in Cozumel. If you swim right from the shore, you’ll have a fenced section of coral which they are aiming to preserve. You can follow the rope and observe the coral from a little further. However, if you swim a little further north, the rope will end and you can enjoy corals from closer. Saw some of the best fan coral, fish variety and even a spotted moray. Super spot.
Other than that, the service at the place is a little pushy, but you can expect that from practically every beach in Cozumel.

This place is a hidden gem for snorkeling lovers! Fantastic reefs along the shore with beautiful fan coral and more shallow coral abundance than other popular spots. Quiet family run place to hear the waves and enjoy snorkeling and eating without all the tequilla tasting massage selling of the other beach clubs. The bottom has coral restoration in place too. Quite small and fantastic, enjoy and take care not to hurt the reef.

I rarely, if ever, post reviews but felt compelled to about this place. It’s a great, mellow, small beach club. If you’re looking for the latest, greatest, and newest, then don’t go to Playa Corona b/c this isn’t it, go to Bucanno’s, Sky Reef, or one of those other larger clubs. But if you’re looking for a small mom and pop place that has great snorkeling, a sandy seating area and volleyball court, cold drinks, and a limited number of palapas and chairs (maybe 40 tops), then this is your place. The menu was limited mostly to apps which worked great for us. $12 entrance fee per person or $18 food/drink per person gets free entrance. It’s a bit rundown in places but the service and the entire vibe were what we were looking for. Can’t recommend it enough.

Delicious food and incredible snorkelling. They also do snorkel rentals here if needed. Removed one star because there is both an entrance fee and a minimum spend at the restaurant if you want to eat and you can find similar snorkeling elsewhere while only paying for food. Highly recommend it for incredible views and food overall! We got the shrimp tacos, steak fajitas, margaritas, and horchata.

Family and I went here to snorkel while we were in Cozumel, and we had an amazing experience here. The snorkeling was fantastic (reef was beautiful, barracudas, flounders, puffer fish and more, and it was very accessible. The staff was also super friendly and went out of their way to make sure we had a good experience. This place is a hidden gem, not touristy at all. Very affordable as well: to use the facilities and snorkel it was only $6 per person, and if we ate food for $12 per person, then facilities and snorkeling would be included. Can’t comment on food or drinks as we just used the facilities and snorkeled. Highly recommend this place!

Our excursion was canceled so we took a taxi here for $15. You either pay $10 a person to use their facilities and beach access or just spend $15 per person in food and drinks to use their facilities.
The service was very good. The food and drinks were good, but it is over priced. Food portions are small for the price.
But, we had a great relaxing time and even went snorkeling (rented equipment from them) and saw barracuda, sting ray, lots of fish. I would come back again if I was in the area.
