Tulum’s Caribbean coastline draws travelers in with its crystal-clear waters, dramatic ruins, and a sense of calm that’s hard to match. For those seeking an elevated experience, a Private Boat Tour Tulum offers a seamless way to take in its magic—from the sea.

Why Choose a Private Tour?
Tulum Boat Tours vary in size and structure, but private excursions offer distinct advantages. With Best Maya Tours, you avoid the crowds, follow your pace, and get personalized guidance at every stop.
Imagine starting your day with hotel pickup in an air-conditioned vehicle, cruising along the coast with panoramic views of ancient Mayan temples, and anchoring near protected coral gardens teeming with life.
The boat is yours—no rushing, no noisy groups, just open space and endless blue.
Tulum From the Water: A Unique Perspective
The coastal ruins of Tulum were once part of a major Maya trade port. Seeing them from the sea adds depth to their story. The cliffs rise steeply from the shore, topped by temples that once signaled safe passage to seafarers.
During your guided walk through the archaeological site, you’ll learn how Tulum’s placement shaped its influence. Then it’s back to the boat—on to snorkel with sea turtles.
A Snorkeling Experience Unlike Others
One of the highlights of this private tour is the chance to swim alongside green sea turtles. You’ll visit calm areas like Akumal Bay or Playa Pescadores, known for their clear visibility and vibrant marine life. With provided snorkel gear and a guide who knows the reefs, you’ll encounter these gentle creatures where they feed on seagrass.
This peaceful underwater moment is often the part travelers remember most.
Beyond Tulum: Consider Bacalar
If you’re extending your stay, ask about a Bacalar Private Boat Tour—an inland escape featuring a freshwater lagoon known as the “Lake of Seven Colors.” It’s ideal for travelers wanting to explore more of the region’s hidden gems with the same level of privacy and attention.
