What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors consistently praise Puerto Aventuras Marina for its beauty, security, and excellent facilities, especially highlighting the helpfulness of the marina manager. While the marina itself is highly regarded, some guests express concerns about the captive marine life attractions.
"We stayed in the marina for 9 days. Our experience was a very pleasant one. The highlight of our visit was the marina manager Gerardo Segrove, he couldn't have been more helpful, from restaurants to try, to tours and sightseeing. He also advised us on people to help us with technical difficulties to taxi drivers. He also helped us with our difficulties receiving a critical package from the States. His knowledge on the area and beyond is priceless. I can't recommend a marina higher. We have been cruising the Eastern and Western Caribbean for 22 yrs. This spot is tops!
Thanks again from,
The Lucky Dog and crew."

"Walked and looked at the boats"

"I spend 4 months there in winter renting a condo, a corner of paradise. The marina is clean, well organized, protected from winds and strong tides. There are a multitude of places to eat and have fun. I love walking there but the only thing that grabs my heart is the dolphins, manatees and sea lions in captivity to entertain tourists, in 2025 that should not be allowed. The marina is a perfect place to find a boat for fishing or to take a yacht trip or see the sunset on a catamaran. There is something for everyone whether for a day, a week or 6 months."
