ATV, Zipline and Cenote Swim Adventure near Puerto Morelos
Ride ATVs through jungle tracks, fly five ziplines, trot on horseback, and cool off in an authentic cenote—this five-hour Puerto Morelos outing mixes adrenaline with cultural landscape. Bilingual guides and safety gear are included, and transfers from central Cancun are provided.
The Experience
Before You Go
Bring reef-safe sunscreen
Apply sunscreen after leaving the cenote to avoid contaminating the water; use reef-safe formulas when swimming.
Wear closed-toe shoes
ATV and horseback sections use sandy, uneven trails—sturdy shoes prevent stubbed toes and keep you comfortable.
Hydrate before you arrive
Humidity and activity add up—drink water before the tour and carry a reusable bottle if allowed.
Listen to safety briefings
Guides give short but critical instructions for ATVs, ziplines, and the cenote; following them prevents most incidents.

Conservation Note
Avoid sunscreens and insect repellents that aren’t labeled reef-safe before entering cenotes; follow guide rules to minimize erosion and litter in sensitive karst areas.
Cenotes were vital freshwater sources for the ancient Maya and often held cultural significance; the region’s limestone karst landscape formed over millions of years as groundwater dissolved the bedrock.
