Quote: We opted for the non-inclusive trip to this park. We figured that $20 more per person was not worth it for us. We ate a big breakfast in the condo before going and brought plenty of water. They say that you cannot bring your own food into the park,... Read the full Xel-Ha Aquatic Park review

  • March 25, 2025
Quote: Xel-Ha is the most amazing place we have ever been. As avid divers in Cayman, we weren't sure what to expect from a biological park. We took a taxi to the ferry, and from the ferry, a bus to the park, which took an hour total. Once we got there... Read the full Xel-Ha Aquatic Park review

Quote: Xel-Ha is as close to paradise as I have ever been. Although it can be a little chilly at first, the crystal-clear waters are perfect for swimming and snorkeling. My wife and I spent hours snorkeling around the lagoon. Although you can find coral... Read the full Xel-Ha Aquatic Park review

Quote: We visited the ruins at Tulum and were very impressed with the way the Mayans set their city up. It is on the coast with only the one seaport with walls surrounding the other three sides. We had a side trip to Xel-al and didn't get to spend enough... Read the full Xel-Ha Aquatic Park review
