A New Way to See the Cancun Underwater Museum

By: - July 16th, 2016

There’s a new way to see the Cancun Underwater Museum.

NIZUC Resort and Spa is offering complimentary boat trips to Cancun’s Museo Sabacuático de Arte, as part of its NIZUC Life program.

Guests will have the opportunity to explore the underwater gallery, where art has become the coral reef.

The gallery features the works of Mexican artists such as Jason Decaires Taylor, Karen Salinas Martinez, Roberto Diaz Abraham and Eller Amado Dil.

NIZUC’s complimentary trip to Punta Nizuc is best for snorkelers, and takes place weekly on Thursdays at noon.

For those interested in a more luxurious afternoon on the water, guests can book NIZUC at Sea– an excursion for up to six passengers in the resort’s 56-foot catamaran, which features an onboard butler, chef, full staff and provisions such as champagne and caviar.

The ship is able to take guests to MUSA’s deeper dive sites or down the Mayan Riviera.
