1.Visit Cenotes: Cenotes are underwater sinkholes, most of them located under caves and caverns, hidden in the jungle. The Maya people consider them as sacred places but they are also a fun attraction to visit and take amazing pictures, snorkel, swim or cave dive, if certified.  The water is fresh and somewhat cold, since it comes from underground rivers that never see the sun. Most cenotes charge a small entrance fee and rent snorkeling gear and life vests. Make sure you bring ecological bug repellent in order to preserve the purity of the environment. Google “Casa Cenote” or “Cenote Azul”.

2. Accommodation: Choose the hotel you will stay at according to your group’s needs. You will find ecological basic cabañas with limited electricity, concrete pods, tree houses, or small boutique Hotels such as “The Beach Tulum Hotel” that offers all the services, from a Spa, a gym to gourmet restaurants and private plunge pools in rooms.
