Luxury Cozumel Catamaran: Snorkel, Beach Club & Relaxation
Sun, sea, and a floating bar await. This five-hour Cozumel outing combines a 65-foot catamaran ride, guided snorkeling, and a stay at Fury Beach Club, so you get both ocean time and a place to dry off and relax. I like the simple mix: certified guides lead the water activity, then you can switch to burgers, hammocks, kayaks, slides, and cold drinks without arranging another stop.
I also like that the group is capped at 35 people, a useful limit for a catamaran day. The price is $109 per person, which can be fair if you make good use of the food, unlimited drinks, equipment, and beach-club activities. The main concern is booking reliability. One serious account describes arriving with a paid confirmation, finding that the operator had no record of the reservation, paying again to board, and then not receiving the promised refund. I would keep every confirmation and verify the departure details before you go.
Key points at a glance

- A 65-foot catamaran sets the tone: You get a proper sailing platform rather than a small open boat, with drinks available onboard.
- Guided snorkeling comes first: Certified guides lead you into Cozumel’s clear water, with equipment supplied.
- Fury Beach Club adds variety: After snorkeling, you can use slides, kayaks, stand-up paddleboards, floats, hammocks, and other water features.
- Lunch is included: The beach club serves Black Angus burgers and fries, which makes the $109 price easier to assess.
- The group limit is 35 people: That is small enough to feel more organized, though it is not a private charter.
- The schedule is fixed: Meet at Muelle Fiscal at 1:00 p.m. and return to the same meeting point about five hours later.
What the five-hour Cozumel outing includes

This is not a quiet sailing trip with one short swim stop. It is built as a full afternoon package: catamaran ride, snorkeling, beach-club access, food, and drinks. I see the appeal for visitors who want one booking to cover most of the day’s costs.
The trip begins at Muelle Fiscal de Cozumel, near the ferry terminal in Centro. The meeting address is listed as Terminal de Ferrys, 77622, Centro, 77668 Cozumel, Quintana Roo. The scheduled start is 1:00 p.m., and the activity finishes back at the same meeting point.
The tour is offered in English. A mobile ticket is accepted, and confirmation is supposed to arrive at booking. Public transportation is nearby, and the activity is described as suitable for most people. Still, the exact water conditions and the pace of the group can affect how much time you spend in each part.

Boarding the 65-foot catamaran at 1:00 p.m.

The catamaran is the main setting for the first part of the afternoon. At 65 feet long, it offers more room than a small excursion boat, which matters when you are carrying snorkeling equipment, sitting with a drink, or moving between the water and the deck.
The group maximum is 35 people. That number is worth noting because the word luxury can create the wrong expectation. You are not booking a private yacht or a quiet charter for a handful of people. You are joining a shared excursion, but the stated limit keeps it from becoming a very large party boat.
Unlimited soda and alcoholic drinks are included onboard. Alcohol is available only to people age 18 and older. If you do not drink, the included soft drinks still make the package more useful, especially during a sunny afternoon on the water.
The catamaran also gives you a change of scene between activities. You are not simply transported to a beach club by road, then returned. The boat ride is part of the experience, and the water views are likely to be one of the more pleasant parts of the afternoon.
Guided snorkeling in Cozumel’s clear water

The snorkeling portion is led by certified guides, and snorkeling equipment is included. That saves you from bringing or renting your own mask and related gear. The guides are an important part of the package because they can organize the group and point out marine life in the water.
I would think of this as a guided introduction rather than a private wildlife expedition. The supplied details do not promise a particular reef, a specific species, or a set amount of time in the water. Conditions can also influence visibility and comfort. Cozumel is known for clear water, but no ocean activity is identical from one day to the next.
The practical question is how comfortable you are in open water. Most people can participate, but the activity still requires you to use snorkeling equipment and enter the sea. If you are unsure, ask the guides about the plan when you arrive. Do not treat the included equipment as a substitute for confidence in the water.
The sequence makes sense. You do the more active water portion before settling into the beach club. I like that arrangement because it leaves the second half open for a slower pace, a meal, or more water play.
Fury Beach Club after the water activity

Fury Beach Club is where this excursion broadens beyond snorkeling. Access is included, as is use of the club’s water park. You can choose among several levels of activity instead of being pushed into one schedule.
The listed amenities include:
- Slides and boards for jumping into the water
- Kayaks
- Stand-up paddleboards
- Floats
- Hammocks
- Surfboards
- Trampolines
- Other beach-club water features
That range is useful for mixed groups. One person can relax in a hammock while another uses a kayak or paddleboard. Families and groups of friends may find this more satisfying than a trip focused only on snorkeling.
The water park also changes the mood. The catamaran and snorkeling portion are active and social. At the club, you can slow down, order another included drink, and choose how much energy you want to spend. I would not book this excursion if you want an isolated beach or a silent afternoon. The club is designed around activities and shared facilities.
The phrase exclusive beach club should also be read carefully. It means access is part of this experience, not that the entire place is reserved for your group. You should expect a recreational setting with several features in use.

Burgers, fries, and unlimited drinks

Food is included at Fury Beach Club, specifically Black Angus burgers and fries. That is a practical benefit. A half-day on the water can leave you hungry, and you do not need to budget separately for a basic meal at the club.
The menu is limited in the information provided. If you have dietary restrictions, ask before booking or contact the provider, Hi Travel Tours, for clarification. Do not assume that the burger meal can be replaced with another dish.
Drinks are available both on the catamaran and at the beach club. Unlimited soda is included, along with unlimited alcoholic drinks for adults age 18 and over. This can add real value if you would otherwise buy several drinks during an afternoon in Cozumel.
There is a trade-off. The open bar is part of the social character of the outing, but it may not suit someone looking for a calm, wellness-focused day. I would also pace yourself in the heat. The package includes drinks, not a reason to overdo them.
Is $109 a fair price?

At $109 per person, this is a midrange to upper-midrange shared excursion rather than the cheapest way to see the water. The value comes from stacking several inclusions into one price:
- Catamaran transportation during the activity
- Snorkeling equipment
- Certified guides
- Fury Beach Club admission
- Water-park access
- Black Angus burger and fries
- Unlimited soda
- Unlimited alcoholic drinks for adults
- Kayaks, floats, paddleboards, hammocks, slides, and other amenities
- Dock tax
If you plan to snorkel, eat lunch, use the water features, and enjoy several drinks, the price can make sense. You are paying for convenience as much as for the boat ride.
The value is weaker if you do not drink, do not care about the beach-club activities, or want a long, dedicated snorkeling session. In that case, much of the package may not matter to you. I would compare the total cost of a simpler snorkeling trip and a separate beach visit before booking.
The dock tax is already included, which helps avoid one common extra charge. The photo package is not included, so treat any photos as an optional purchase rather than part of the advertised value.
Who should book this afternoon?

I would point this excursion toward people who want variety. You get ocean time, guided snorkeling, a meal, water toys, and a casual place to rest. It suits couples, families, and friend groups with different ideas of fun.
It may also work well for cruise visitors because the meeting point is close to the ferry terminal area and the tour returns to the same place. Still, the supplied information does not promise a ship pickup or guarantee timing around a particular cruise schedule. If you are sailing that day, leave a generous buffer and confirm the return timing before committing.
This is less suitable for anyone seeking a private boat, a quiet beach, or a highly specialized snorkeling experience. The group can include up to 35 people, and the beach club adds a public recreational feel.
Most people can participate, according to the activity information, but you should still consider your own comfort with swimming, snorkeling equipment, and ocean conditions. Ask about any concerns at the start rather than assuming every feature will suit you.
Booking carefully with Hi Travel Tours

The experience provider is Hi Travel Tours. Confirmation is issued at booking, and the activity uses a mobile ticket. Keep the confirmation available on your phone, along with the exact meeting address and start time.
One account raises a serious administrative warning. A booking made the day before was paid and confirmed, but the operator reportedly could not find it at the meeting point. The person was asked to pay the full price again, was told a refund would follow, and later reported that no refund arrived. That is one account, not proof that every booking will fail, but it is too specific to ignore.
I would take three sensible steps:
- Save the confirmation email and mobile ticket offline.
- Confirm the meeting point and reservation with the provider before the 1:00 p.m. departure.
- If a problem occurs, document every payment and conversation before paying again.
The listed cancellation policy allows a full refund if you cancel at least 24 hours before the start time. Cancellations within 24 hours are not refunded, and changes within that window are not accepted. Cut-off times use Cozumel’s local time, so do not wait until the last minute.
The best way to judge this catamaran day
The strongest part of this outing is the combination of activities. You are not left with only one short snorkeling stop. After the water portion, you have a beach club with food, drinks, and enough equipment to keep the afternoon moving.
The weaker points are just as clear. The group is shared, the exact snorkeling site and timing are not specified, and the booking problem described above deserves caution. The photo package costs extra, and the burger meal may not suit every diet.
Book it if you want an easy, social afternoon with a lot included in one price. Skip it if your priority is privacy, a quiet shoreline, or a serious snorkeling-focused trip. For the best fit, think of this as a fun water-and-beach-club package, not a luxury charter in the private-yacht sense.
