Take a Dip in the Cenote Pools

Come explore these ancient geological formations where subterranean rivers and crystal-clear sinkholes form natural pools. According to the Mayan theory of the origin of the universe, the cenotes were the source of life because they provided the water necessary for life. They were also the gateway to Xibalbá, or the place of the dead and a point where humans could communicate with the gods. We recommend Chac Mool in Puerto Aventuras, and Suytun and Xkekén close to Valladolid.
