Any Excursions with Turtles?

Are there any excursions in Cozumel where you can snorkel and potentially view sea turtles?

The only turtle excursions I know are the seasonal “save the turtle excursions” for a limited period on east coast but a quick google search did reveal one boat snorkel excursion to a “turtle sanctuary” which included El Cielo famous for starfish. I thought most turtle excursions were from the mainland.

Best turtle excursion we ever did was one in St.Martin if you ever take an Eastern Caribbean cruise. There was a small island off St. Martin, that they kept just for the turtles. Limited amount of people allowed in the area at any time. Lots of turtles to view. (DW even saw a bunch staying in the boat and not snorkeling)

Yes.  Look for excursions to the Palancar and or the Columbia reef.  We have seen them every time we go out there.  Not that much from the shore.
