The Experience

Before You Go

Closed-toe shoes only

Sturdy trainers or hiking shoes protect feet on ATVs, during horseback mounting, and on slick cenote ledges.

Bring biodegradable sunscreen & repellent

Cenote ecosystems are sensitive—use reef-safe sunscreen and apply insect repellent before arrival to minimize contamination.

Hydrate and eat lightly beforehand

Five hours of activity in heat requires water; bring a refillable bottle and have a light breakfast to avoid nausea on the zipline or ATV.

Know weight/age limits

Operators enforce restrictions for ATVs and ziplines—disclose exact weights/heights when booking to avoid being turned away.

Local Knowledge

Hidden Gems

  • The quiet fishing pier and small seafood shacks in Puerto Morelos for a post-tour meal away from tourist crowds
  • A shaded cenote ledge and rock outcrop off the main swim area—great for photos when staff permit short rests there

Wildlife

  • Green iguanas
  • Tropical birds (motmots and kingfishers)

Conservation Note

Cenote waters are delicate—use biodegradable products, avoid touching cave formations, and follow guide instructions to reduce disturbance to wildlife and water quality.

Cenotes were central to Mayan ritual and water supply; Puerto Morelos began as a fishing community and later became an access point for Riviera Maya ecotourism.
