Cenote and Paradise Lagoon Snorkelling in Tulum

Overview

Explore the Mayan cenotes and the underwater landscapes of Yal-Ku Lagoon on a guided excursion from Tulum. This activity combines the discovery of natural sinkholes with snorkelling in a unique ecosystem. The tour begins with a visit to cenotes, where you will swim among rock formations within underground caves and caverns. You will then discover Yal-Ku Lagoon, a site where fresh and salt waters meet, fostering a rich marine biodiversity of tropical fish. The excursion includes round-trip transport from most hotels in Cancun and the Riviera Maya, as well as snorkelling equipment (snorkel and life jacket), a snack, and water. Two pick-up options are available depending on your accommodation: one for Cancun and Puerto Morelos, and another for the Riviera Maya, Playa del Carmen, and Tulum.

Activity itinerary

Jump in and float along on a guided tour in the brisk waters of ancient Mayan cenotes. Cenotes are natural sinkholes that expose groundwater underneath. Navigate through breathtaking caves and caverns and discover the ancient rock formations up close! Next, snorkel through a fantastic inlet where saltwater and freshwater mix creating the ideal habitat for a multitude of sea life. The water is so calm you will want to jump right in and swim over the submerged rock formations that are home to hundreds of exotic tropical fish. Watch for blue tangs, triggerfish and much more! Yalku is a remarkable treasure of the Riviera Maya!
