The Experience

Before You Go

Wear shoes that can get wet

Closed-toe, quick-dry shoes protect feet on the ATV and work in the cenote; flip-flops are not recommended.

Hydrate before you go

Bring a reusable water bottle and drink before the activity; the tropical sun and adrenaline make dehydration easy.

Apply reef-safe sunscreen

Use biodegradable sunscreen to protect skin and avoid contaminating the cenote and local waterways.

Listen to the briefing

Guides provide step-by-step instructions for ATVs and ziplines—following them keeps the group safe and on schedule.

Local Knowledge

Hidden Gems

  • Walk the short pier in Puerto Morelos at sunset for quiet local fishing views
  • Small cenote alcoves often have clearer pockets of water away from the main entry—ask your guide about quieter spots

Wildlife

  • frigatebirds and pelicans along the coast
  • tropical fish visible in cenote shallows or nearby reef tours

Conservation Note

Cenotes and reef ecosystems are fragile—operators advise using reef-safe sunscreen, avoiding single-use plastics, and following guide instructions to limit impact.

The region sits atop a karst landscape central to Maya culture; cenotes were freshwater sources and ritual sites for coastal communities.
