Selvatica Cenote, Zipline & ATV Adventure from Cancun
Fly above jungle canopy, bump across trails on ATVs, and cool off in a natural cenote—all in a half-day excursion from Cancun. This guided Selvatica route pairs adrenaline with practical safety and local context.
The Experience
Before You Go
Wear closed-toe shoes
ATV trails are dusty and zip-line platforms require secure footing—sturdy trainers or light hiking shoes are best.
Bring a swimsuit under clothes
Change is limited—wearing a suit under quick-dry clothes saves time and keeps you comfortable after the cenote swim.
Use reef-safe sunscreen and rinse
Many cenotes require rinsing off oils and sunscreen before entry to protect water quality—carry biodegradable sunscreen and a small towel.
Secure valuables in a waterproof case
Phones and wallets are vulnerable during zips and ATVs; a drybag or waterproof phone case keeps them safe.

Conservation Note
Follow park rules: rinse off non-biodegradable products before entering cenotes and avoid touching stalactites; operators often run briefings on protecting water quality.
Cenotes are sinkholes formed by collapsed limestone and were central to Maya life for freshwater and ritual; the park combines that geology with adventure infrastructure.
