What to expect
Cenotes in Tulum, Mexico, are a fascinating underground world of freshwater sinkholes connected to vast underground cave systems. These natural wonders, dating back thousands of years, create a magical landscape that has captivated visitors and locals for centuries. The cenotes are unique geological formations found primarily in the Yucatan Peninsula region, formed millions of years ago due to collapsed cave ceilings, exposing the freshwater flowing underneath. For the ancient Mayans, cenotes were sacred and considered portals to the underworld and sources of life. Some popular cenotes in Tulum include Cenote Crystal, Escondido, Calavera, Corazón, Tankah, Gran Cenote, and Aktun Ha, each offering a unique experience for swimming, snorkeling, and exploring the natural beauty of the area
