The Experience

Before You Go

Bring a change of clothes

ATV trails kick up dust and cenote swims leave you wet—pack a dry change and a plastic bag for wet items.

Mandatory park fee

There is a US$30 per person Goods & Service fee payable at the park separate from your booking—bring cash or card.

Hydrate and use reef-safe sunscreen

High humidity and sun exposure mean drink water before and after activities; choose biodegradable sunscreen for cenote health.

Secure your valuables

Use a small dry bag or leave cameras locked in the van—ATV bumps and ziplines jostle loose items easily.

Local Knowledge

Hidden Gems

  • Small freshwater seeps along trails where local birds gather
  • A quiet hanging-bridge viewpoint that faces east for sunrise light

Wildlife

  • Great kiskadee and other tropical birds
  • Howler monkeys (heard more often than seen)

Conservation Note

Stick to marked trails, use reef-safe sunscreen, and avoid introducing soaps into cenotes—these measures help protect fragile underground water systems.

The cenotes are part of the Yucatán’s karst landscape and were essential freshwater sources for Maya settlements; many have archaeological and cultural significance.
