Selvatica Zipline and Cenote Adventure from Cancun — Jungle Canopy & Swim
Fly through a ten-line zip circuit, test a zip-coaster, then cool off in a private cenote—Selvatica packs adrenaline and a natural swim into a 3–4 hour excursion from Cancun. Read on for what to expect and how to prepare.
The Experience
Before You Go
Book early-morning slots
Mornings are cooler, less humid, and have smaller groups—ideal for clearer photos and fewer bugs.
Wear closed-toe shoes
Trails and platforms are uneven and dusty; secure footwear keeps you stable during harness transitions.
Leave non-waterproof phones secured
AquaZip and cenote swims can soak you; use a waterproof case or leave electronics in lockers.
Follow health restrictions
The operator enforces weight and medical limits—disclose heart, spinal, or pregnancy issues before booking.
