Puerto Morelos is the closest coastal stop to Cancun Airport after the Hotel Zone, about 32 km away and around 35 minutes by road. Our private transfer takes you straight from arrivals to this quieter fishing village on the Riviera Maya.
About this route
Puerto Morelos keeps a relaxed, low-rise feel compared with busier resort towns further south, centred around its original fishing village and a hotel strip known as Riviera Cancún. Families often pass through on the way to Crococun Zoo or the Jardín Botánico Dr. Alfredo Barrera, while divers head for the Puerto Morelos Reef just offshore. The short 32 km drive from the airport takes about 35 minutes, making it one of the quickest transfers we offer.
Your driver tracks your flight ahead of pickup, so early or delayed arrivals are covered without extra charge, and meet and greet happens in the arrivals hall with a name board for easy spotting. There is no luggage limit per seat, which suits travellers heading out along the Ruta de los Cenotes for day trips. Child seats can be added to the booking on request.
Booking in advance is recommended, particularly around busy holiday periods, though shorter notice bookings can often still be arranged. Payment is accepted in USD, MXN or EUR by cash, card or bank transfer, and the fare stays fixed with no hidden waiting charges added later. The transfer operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and tipping is left entirely to your discretion.
