Protecting the Reef
Puerto Morelos has been become famous in this area for it's extraordinary
snorkeling experiences.  The reason?  By designating this area
as a National Marine Park, measures have been put in place to protect the reef
from damaging, human, behavior.  Every snorkel guide must have taken a
course and be licensed to conduct reef tours in the park.  

Some useful information on Park regulations.












REMEMBER: LOOK BUT DON’T TOUCH.
