Captains of the boats must be 18 years or older, but passengers can be as young as 5. This is one of the best activities in Cancun for families.

When you’re ready to begin your Cancun Jungle Tour, you and a buddy will rev up the motor and take off across the Nichupte Lagoon, rich in fauna like iguanas, turtles, and frogs in the mangroves and an extraordinary range of species of sea birds like The Great Heron. Keep an eye out for dolphins and crocodiles who call the lagoon home!

The Nichupte Lagoon in Cancun is over 3000 hectares of natural beauty and wonder. The lagoon is actually made up of several smaller lagoons where you’ll find hidden beaches, a wonderful array of marine species of birds and wildlife, and a very important mangrove system. The mangroves of Cancun (and of the world!) act as “the lungs of the planet” and their preservation is important! Exploring the mangroves in a Cancun Jungle Tour is a once-in-a-lifetime experience in unique ecosystems!
