What to expect

Seeing Cancun from the air doesn't have to be complicated. The SkyRider is parasailing you enjoy sitting down: a reclining two-person seat that rises from the back deck of the boat and lands back on it when you're done, with no running start on the sand.

Before takeoff, the crew explains how it works and hands you a life jacket, which is mandatory and included. Then the line lets out and the seat climbs gradually until you're floating over Nichupte Lagoon, with the row of Hotel Zone resorts on one side and the blue Caribbean on the other.

Up there the noise stays below and the view takes over. The flight lasts about 10 minutes and the whole activity 30 to 45 minutes, with the staff keeping an eye on you from the boat. On the way down you can ask for a quick dip before you're back on deck.

Flyers must be 5 to 65 years old, with up to two people per flight, so it works well for couples, friends or an adult with a child. It isn't allowed during pregnancy or after drinking alcohol.

It departs from the Aquaworld marina in the Hotel Zone. Transportation isn't included, and the dock and reef conservation fee is paid at check-in. Departures depend on wind and water conditions. Book your flight with us and see Cancun from a whole new height.

“Hiring a private transportation service to Costa Mujeres was one of the best decisions I made during my trip. I arrived at the airport very exhausted and being able to get to my hotel quickly was great. All the staff was very friendly and the trip was direct.”

“I traveled with my family to the Riviera Maya and from our arrival at the airport everything was perfect. We booked a Private Transportation Akumal service to get to our hotel and we are very satisfied, the driver was very kind and attentive with us.”

“My friends and I visited Playa Paraiso a few months ago and booked a Group Shuttle to get to the hotel and move around. It was definitely a fantastic idea, as it made our trip much easier.”

“The best transportation service in Puerto Aventuras without a doubt. My wife and I had an incredible time from start to finish. The vehicles are modern and very comfortable, in addition to being air-conditioned.”
