The Experience
Before You Go
Bring a valid driver’s license
You must be 18+ with a valid driver’s license to drive solo; proof is checked before ATV use.
Wear closed-toe shoes
Sturdy shoes protect your feet on ATVs and provide traction for the zipline platforms and cenote edges.
Skip lotions before the cenote swim
Most parks ask you to rinse off sunscreen or avoid it entirely to protect fragile cenote ecosystems.
Time your visit to avoid peak heat
Morning or late-afternoon departures reduce midday heat and improve visibility for photos.
