The Experience

Before You Go

Closed-toe footwear required

Bring sturdy sneakers or light hiking shoes—open sandals are not suitable for ATVs or ziplines.

Hydrate before you go

Tropical heat and activity add up—drink water before pickup and carry a refillable bottle to use at the park.

Use biodegradable sunscreen

If you plan to swim in cenotes, choose reef-safe sunscreen or rinse before entering to protect freshwater ecosystems.

Bring a small dry bag

Keep your phone, cash and a light jacket dry during cenote swims and ATV dust; a compact dry bag fits easily in the park lockers.

Local Knowledge

Hidden Gems

  • Smaller roadside cenotes a short drive from the park offer quieter swims away from main groups.
  • Local food stalls near Puerto Morelos serve cochinita-style tacos and homemade aguas frescas—great after the tour.

Wildlife

  • Iguanas basking on sunlit trails
  • Tropical birds and kingfishers near water edges

Conservation Note

Parks on the Cenote Route manage visitors to limit erosion and water pollution—use biodegradable products, stay on marked trails, and follow guide instructions to protect fragile cenote systems.

The Yucatán’s karst landscape formed the cenotes that sustained ancient Maya communities; on guided visits you’ll hear how freshwater sources shaped settlement and ritual life.
