5. Cenote Dos Ojos

These natural phenomena are connected by an underground river system and are filled with fresh water, perfect for cooling off the Caribbean climate. This cenote in particular is located between Playa del Carmen and Tulum and has different depths, making it suitable for divers of all ages.

4. Isla Mujeres

A 15-minute boat ride will take you to one of the most popular destinations: Isla Mujeres, which owes its popularity to its beaches and to its particularly laid-back atmosphere. You can get there with a tour, or by water taxi or ferry. In the center of the island you will find a variety of shops and restaurants and you can rent a golf cart to go round the island. This way, you and your partner will discover this place in which the ancient Mayan civilization worshiped Ixchel, goddess of fertility.

3. Columbus Cruise

On the Columbus Spanish Galleon, you can enjoy dinner with a Sea and Earth menu. Then, go for a walk along the beautiful Laguna Nichupte while the sun is setting, and the soft melody of a saxophone surrounds you. This tour is perfect for a wedding anniversary or even a marriage proposal.

2. Xel-Ha

This eco-park belongs to Xcaret Experiences (Xcaret, Xplor, Xenotes, Xenses, Xoximilco) and has an impressive natural aquarium, magnificent caves and cenotes where you can swim and see the local marine life. Here you can explore the Mayan ruins, jump from the Cliff of Courage, cross a floating bridge, ride bikes and even fly kites.

Xel-Há has a delicious buffet restaurant and children's area, as well as a wonderful spot for swimming with dolphins.

1. Puerto Morelos

In Arrecife Nacional Parque Puerto Morelos, nestled in the Mesoamerican Reef System - the second largest barrier reef in the world - you can perform water sports such as diving, windsurfing, kayaking, and snorkeling, as it is preferred by many for its coral and tropical landscapes.

Puerto Morelos is among the favorite places of couples looking for a beach away from the commercial spots, as well as those seeking interaction and swimming with dolphins.

Remember to plan your visit in advance so that you and your partner have a pleasant experience for your celebration. At Delphinus, we want to witness this great story, with our dolphin couple swim, specially designed for you and your partner.
