Hotel Marina El Cid Spa & Resort Activities

Hotel Marina El Cid Spa & Beach Resort offers plenty of activities to keep all of their guests busy... tennis, volleyball, windsurfing, boogie boards, hobie-cats, kayaking and a full activities staff to keep the fun going all day long. If you prefer to relax and kick back with a good book, there are plenty of spots for that too.

Hotel Marina El Cid Spa & Beach Riviera Maya has a beautiful stretch of white sandy beach. As with many of the resorts located in the northern part of the Riviera Maya between Cancun and Playa Del Carmen, there is a good deal of sea grass in the water. This is a matter of nature and the resort staff does clean the guest areas of the beach.

Snorkeling and diving lessons are free in the pool but there is not much visibility ocean due to the sea grass. For this reason, snorkeling equipment is not offered as part of the all inclusive non-motorized water sports. That said, the resort lies less than a mile from the town of Puerto Morelos which is famous for the Puerto Morelos National Reef Park. The reef itself lies about 500 feet off shore of the resort. It's a bit too far to swim directly but, for for a fee, the resort offers guided exursions to take guests on a 2 hour snorkeling excursion to see the magnificent corals and the masses of brightly colored tropical fish.
