Why go

This is a cenote for enjoying freshwater and forest in the open air. Its broad swimming areas and shaded edges offer a gentler landscape than enclosed cave systems, while the clear water also suits leisurely snorkeling. The setting makes a natural pause from the coast without turning the visit into a technical dive.

What to look for

  • Freshwater swim
  • Open-air cenote setting
  • Shaded jungle edge

Useful to know

  • Confirm current hours and entry terms on the operator site; bring cash.
  • Shower before entering and follow the site’s ban on sunscreen, repellent and other skin products in the water.
  • Use care crossing Highway 307 if arriving by colectivo; arrange a safe drop-off and return.
