ATV and Zipline Adventure with Cenote Swim from Cancun
Combine off-road ATV trails, a multi-platform zipline circuit, and a refreshing cenote swim on this half-day adventure from Cancun. Expect jungle tracks, short climbs to platforms, and crystal-clear freshwater in a classic Yucatán sinkhole.
The Experience
Before You Go
Wear closed-toe shoes
Trails are muddy and rocky; sturdy shoes with good grip protect your feet while riding and walking to platforms.
Bring biodegradable sunscreen
Regular sunscreen harms cenote water and aquatic life; use reef-safe, biodegradable formulas.
Stay hydrated and pace yourself
The tour mixes adrenaline with tropical heat — drink water at breaks and take your time on physical sections.
Basic swim skills required
Cenote access means you’ll need to be comfortable in open freshwater; life vests are usually available.
Local Knowledge
Hidden Gems
- •Smaller, shaded pools off the main cenote area offer calmer water for floating.
- •Food stalls near the meeting point sell regional aguas frescas and churros worth a quick try.
Wildlife

- •Tropical birds like motmots and kingfishers in the canopy
Conservation Note
Use biodegradable products and avoid touching cave formations or feeding wildlife; operators commonly limit boat and swim access to protect fragile cenote ecosystems.
Cenotes are collapse features in the limestone of the Yucatán; they were vital freshwater sources for the Maya and often held ritual significance.
