We booked the sunset cruise as a last minute trip as it was my partner’s birthday and along with seeing the sunrise at our hotel, she wanted to see the sunset too. The cruise topped off a great day for her!
The whole experience was excellent and highly recommended. Great communication for the pick-up from the hotel, always read the small print as you had to pay $20 each for port tax and it must be cash (caught some people out).
The cruise was brilliant. The catamaran was a good size, all drinks were free and there was a party atmosphere, nothing rowdy just fun. After about an hour out to sea we stopped off the coast of Isla Mujeres and had some time in the Caribbean Sea, life jackets provided for free and a little snack. We then docked and was given about 45mins to walk the island, where we walked down to the beach and saw the beautiful sunset. Felt safe on the island.
Back on the boat the party vibe continued where drinks and shots were given, my partner and others being roped in to birthday celebrations. At Cancun we got our buses back to the hotels, no fuss. Out for around 5hrs.
And a shout out to Roberto on the sax, so good!

This excursion did NOT disappoint! Highly recommend if you’re looking for an activity that allows you to take a step off the resort and explore neighboring parts of Cancun/Isla Mujeres. In short, this was an amazing experience that had a great mix of relaxation, partying, exploring, food, shopping and more! Here’s a breakdown of what I enjoyed.
Transportation: Quick and seamless transportation from our resort. Only about a 10 minute ride. Sit towards the front of the van if you get easily car sick though. The ride moves quickly and if you're sensitive to quick movement it could catch you by surprise!
Check In: bring cash! There’s about a $20 tax docking fee you’ll pay per person before you board so plan ahead and make sure you have it handy. You’ll wait by the dock where there’s a mini shop of souvenirs you can look at while waiting to board. Make sure to tip as well.
Overall Catamaran experience: staff were extremely friendly and hospitable from the moment we stepped on and until we left. Great energy, beautiful views, and wonderful music from the DJ and talented saxophonist on board. Free drinks and they provide a sandwich. At some point they stop the boat near the shore which allows you to jump out and take a dip in the ocean. There’s even a photographer on board to take professional pictures!
Isla Mujeres: We stopped for a little over an hour on the island where there’s dozens of shops and restaurants for you to get a quick bite to eat. As three single women we felt safe moving about which was a priority for us.
Whenever I come back to visit I know who I’m booking with! What a great way to spend our 30th birthday. Thanks Contoy adventures!

Thank you to the Emcee, DJ, Captain and Roberto the talented saxophonist who made my family's time on the Caribbean Sunset Cruise so magical. We celebrated my son's 20th Birthday and the energy was so fun! We enjoyed our free time on Isla Murejes, riding a cart around the island, party music, fantastic dusk swim and making our son's Birthday so memorable!! Thank you again!

While the catamaran was nice and the crew made things fun, the same cannot be said for the people manning the check in at the pier. When we got there, the check in guy was rude and dismissive. When I asked a question, he kept looking at his phone and didn’t acknowledge me until my friend (who was male) came over. The trip description also didn’t indicate that they wanted ONLY cash for the dock fee when other similar outfitters took credit cards and cash. Transportation was included but the driver was 10 minutes late. Finally, we were expecting a tour when we got to Isla Mujeres but when we were taken to a Diamonds International store, it wasn’t clear who our guide was, so we didn’t get a walking tour. At least the tequila tasting actually happened. The tour description definitely didn’t match my expectations.

We did the sunset catamaran sailing to isla mujeres on May 10. There was a mix up at the port about a 16% credit card charge (our fault for not having cash) but it was resolved by the person we booked the tour through. That aside, the experience was very fun and enjoyable!! The best part was the crew and trombone player. They all made the night a fun party and inclusive. Open bar (beer is extra), and light croissant sandwiches after the one hour stop in isla mujeres. One hour isn’t a enough to really do anything but walk down the main drag on the island. When you anchor for the sunset, you get a chance to swim. I would recommend this tour company for this tour.

They provided great service and wonderful environment!
We did the evening trip and the transport shuttle/ driver was very safe and efficient. He was kind enough to add an additional group people back to their hotel because their shuttle never arrived!

The island is amazing but this cruise is not worth it. Take the ultra mar. The ad said “romantic” which was far from the case. We were picked up at the RIU Las Americas and went to a dock much further away than the Ultra Mar would have been.
Left our resort at 4:00 PM. Endured a 30 minute ride and then a 30 minute wait at the dock with no refreshments! Then got on the cheap plastic boat finally which had an unnecessary speaker to blast all the rules in our faces about where we had to go and what to do. Drinks had no alcohol in them and the music was obnoxiously loud.
So we stayed on the island which was great. This cruise only allowed about an hour which is not nearly enough time. Took the ultra mar back which was cheap and very nice. Also a much closer ride back to our hotel. There was even a bar at this dock!

10/10 would recommend! Willy in his crew were awesome! I went on this cruise for my birthday and I’d definitely recommend if you like to party, drink, and have a great time. It was about 4 hours long enough time to turn up! I had too much fun. Thanks to all the staff for making my day special ❤️.

This was a fun trip, minus one star because of what we didn’t know…..they toss out a floating rope and let you swim in the ocean for awhile, lifejackets were available, then we didn’t really watch the sun set, they told us look quick because we were docking at the island and we were to entertain ourselves for an hour and a half after dark and meet back in front of the closed diamond shop that gave us the tequila tasting (so you could buy some, which we did the plum tequila!). It was fine but that’s none of that was really in the description. The crew, Willie etc, were all wonderful and fun and we really enjoyed it a lot.

Was such a fun experience. My wife and I booked a sunset cruise on our honeymoon and the night was incredibly fun. Very good value with food and drinks provided. We were unaware there would be snorkeling or a visit to Isla Mujeres (we booked through our hotel and they didn’t give us this information). But we made the most of the experience. The trip back from Isla Mujeres was the best part. Fun party music and drinks made for a great time.
Highly recommended

Do you have to walk into the town for the 2 hours or can you just go straight to the beach. I had hip surgery and can't walk very long. Just curious.
