OUR OWNED FLEET
Nine yachts. One perfect fit.
Looking for a boat? We've got some big ones. They're called yachts. Compare the space, features and guest capacity to find your perfect fit.
Compare the duration and included guest allowance as well as maximum capacity. Rates come from each yacht's published charter listings and are in USD. Extra guests, marina fees, transportation and optional extras are separate; check your date and final total before booking.
Tulum yacht rentals: compare boats, routes and total cost
Plan a Tulum boat rental with your own yacht, captain and crew. Choose a sunset cruise, Xpu-Ha swim or InHa snorkeling charter for your family or celebration. H2OH serves guests staying in Tulum; every charter boards at Puerto Aventuras Marina, with transportation confirmed separately.
Can we board a yacht in Tulum town or the beach zone?
No. H2OH yacht charters depart from Puerto Aventuras Marina. Send your complete Tulum hotel or villa address, not only the property name: a town address and a beach-zone address can require different pickup timing. Plan the road journey, check-in and return transfer around your charter; time aboard is not your total outing time.
Which Tulum boat rental fits a family trip or boat party?
For family time, a bachelorette or a birthday, compare three-hour Xpu-Ha for swimming and music with four-hour InHa for snorkeling. A two-hour sunset charter is an evening option; confirm the departure time for your date. Your captain confirms the route and water activities for sea conditions. Regular all-inclusive charters include meals, open bar, captain and crew. Family Charters include meals and non-alcoholic drinks instead of an included open bar and are not available on Piratas TOO. Decorations, photography, transportation and bar upgrades depend on your selected package.
Is the price for our own yacht or for a shared boat tour?
Your H2OH charter is for your private group. Compare the published base rates in the yacht comparison with the included guest allowance for each duration. Maximum yacht capacity is not the number included in the base price. Add your full guest count, marina fees, transportation and optional extras when comparing the total.
Can we plan a wedding party or reception from Tulum?
Start with your guest list and preferred date, then choose a yacht that accommodates everyone. Share any fixed ceremony, dinner or hotel-event time before choosing a departure. Our team can help coordinate a private wedding celebration and transportation without assuming that every extra is included.
Choose your hotel area before arranging pickup, then keep the charter day clear of tightly timed beach-club or dinner bookings. A beach-club visit and a private yacht charter are separate experiences with separate reservations.

Awesome experience with great caring staff that made the entire group feel comfortable! I will be sure to utilize their private yacht charters and recommend them for my clients going forward that ask for yacht experiences while in Mexico.

You’re staying where ancient Maya history meets the Caribbean. Think clifftop ruins, beach days, memorable dinners, and evenings that can be as lively or laid-back as you like. Leave room in the itinerary for a little wonder.
History & local character
Long before Tulum became a beach destination, it was an important Maya coastal trading center. Most buildings visible at the archaeological site date from 1250–1550 CE, although evidence points to earlier settlement. Its walls, cliff-top position and murals tell a story of commerce and ceremony. This is an archaeological period, not a precise founding date for today’s town.
La Zebra wellness — Beachfront wellness, movement and spa options.
Sights
Tulum Archaeological Site — Explore the walled Maya city overlooking the Caribbean, its temples and surviving murals.
Make room for a yacht day
Spend one day discovering Tulum and another enjoying the coastline with your own crew. H2OH charters depart from Puerto Aventuras Marina. Share your exact Tulum hotel or villa address when planning transport; a beach-zone address and a town address can mean different journeys.

These are examples to compare, not a popularity ranking. Check rooms, inclusions, location, and availability directly.
Getting to other locations

ADO offers travel between Tulum and Playa del Carmen; a taxi or prearranged transfer connects your hotel to the appropriate terminal or directly to your destination. The beach zone needs its own connection to town. Check ADO’s Playa–Tulum route. For your charter, see our transportation information. Confirm fares and pickup arrangements before traveling.
