Cenote Azul

The large open air Cenote Azul, with its shallow waters and fun cliff jump, is one of our favorite Playa Del Carmen cenotes. The main cenote is split into two swimming areas which are separated by a wooden boardwalk. The shallow side of the cenote, where younger kids can paddle in the clear waters, is popular with families. The deeper pool has a cliff perched above it which is great for having some fun jumping into the cenote. Snorkeling is also popular on this side.

Cenote Zacil-Ha

Cenote Zacil-Ha is a small and beautiful open air cenote with crystal clear waters. There are lots of opportunities to jump from the sides or even zip line across and drop into the cenote from above! Other features include hammocks and regular swimming pools to lounge around!

Gran Cenote

Gran Cenote is a large and popular cenote located outside Tulum. It is made up of a collection of caves, caverns and an open air cenote. It is one of the best diving cenotes on the Yucatan Peninsula. The waters are crystal clear, so clear that it is often possible to spot turtles swimming in its waters. Gran Cenote is also incredible for snorkeling. It is relatively easy to swim and snorkel into the caves for a spectacular view of the light beams hitting the water through the cave opening and to check out the rock formations.
