A Perfect Blend of Adventure and Relaxation in Cozumel
If you’re heading to Cozumel and crave a mix of high-energy fun and tranquil beach time, this private jet ski tour with snorkeling and drinks hits the mark. For roughly $266 per group (up to two), you get about an hour and a half of exhilarating jet skiing, scenic island views, and a relaxing afternoon at San Francisco Beach Club. Guides like Tadeo and Fabian have earned glowing reviews for their friendly, attentive service, making the experience feel personal rather than commercial.
What we particularly love about this tour is how it combines adventure with comfort. On one side, zooming across the clear waters on a jet ski gives an adrenaline rush — you’ll love the way the Caribbean Sea’s blues stretch out before you. On the other, settling into the shaded tables at San Francisco Beach Club for a delicious lunch, plus the chance to snorkel in calm, crystal-clear waters, rounds out the day beautifully.
