Locally Owned Eco Tours in Costa Maya & Mahahual

La Leyenda ECO TOURS is a locally owned tour company based in Mahahual, Costa Maya, Mexico, offering eco-friendly experiences designed for travelers who want to explore the region responsibly and at a relaxed pace.

We specialize in snorkeling tours on the Mesoamerican Reef, private and cultural excursions, and cruise-friendly shore tours that reflect our deep connection to the local community and environment.

Our Story

La Leyenda ECO TOURS was created by locals who grew up along the coast of Mahahual and understand the importance of protecting the reef, respecting Mayan heritage, and sharing authentic experiences with visitors.

What started as a small operation focused on personal service has grown into a trusted option for travelers visiting Costa Maya, while remaining true to our values of sustainability, honesty, and care for the natural surroundings.

Our Approach to Eco-Friendly Tourism

Eco-tourism is not a trend for us — it is a responsibility.

Our tours are designed to:

• Operate in small groups

• Respect marine life and coral systems

• Use reef-safe practices

• Support local drivers, guides, and businesses

• Minimize environmental impact while maximizing meaningful experiences

These practices guide every snorkeling tour, excursion, and private trip we offer in Costa Maya.
