Sturdy shoes prevent injury and give better control on muddy, rocky trails.
Know the weight limits
Ziplines cap at 270 lbs and ATVs at 300 lbs—check limits before booking to avoid surprises.
Hydrate and eat light
A light breakfast and water keep you energized for snorkel, ATV and zipline efforts without stomach upset.

Conservation Note
The reef is a protected marine park—participants are asked to avoid touching coral and use biodegradable products; the operator emphasizes reef-friendly practices and responsible tourism.
Cenotes were sacred to the Maya as entrances to the underworld and freshwater sources; Puerto Morelos evolved from a small fishing village and now protects the adjacent reef as a national park.
