Puerto Morelos ATV, Ziplines & Cenote Swim from Cancun — Jungle Adrenaline Day Trip
Combine jungle ATV runs, canopy ziplines and a swim in a limestone cenote on a compact 5-hour adventure from Cancun. Certified guides, safety equipment and hotel pickup make it a high-energy way to sample Puerto Morelos’ geology and thrills.
The Experience
Before You Go
Arrive hydrated
Drink water before pickup and bring a refillable bottle — the day is active and tropical heat adds strain.
Wear sturdy closed-toe shoes
ATV tracks are dusty and can be uneven; closed toes protect feet during mounting and dismounting.
Use reef-safe sunscreen
Apply biodegradable sunscreen before arrival to protect cenote water and coastal reef life.
Secure your phone
Bring a dry bag or chest mount for photos — ziplines and cenote swims can quickly soak loose devices.

Cenotes on the Yucatán formed from collapsed limestone and were vital freshwater sources for Maya communities; nearby reef formations influenced coastal settlement patterns.
