Explore the colorful reefs of Mexico Rocks and swim with gentle stingrays at Stingray City. Snorkeling at Mexico Rocks has been described as snorkeling in a giant aquarium and is not to be missed! This amazing marine reserve is home to starfish, elkhorn and staghorn coral, as well as lobster, eel and various species of colorful fish. The area is shallow (10-12′); very clear and slightly flat, making it perfect for beginner snorkelers. Your tour guide will snorkel with you and point out different species as you come across them.
