Frequently Asked Questions
What is a cenote?
A cenote is a natural freshwater pool formed where limestone bedrock has dissolved and exposed the groundwater beneath. The cenotes near Bayahibe are spring fed, crystal clear and cool, very different from a sea swim.
Where does the tour go?
The tour visits cenotes in the jungle on the Padre Nuestro trail, in the Cotubanama National Park area just inland from Bayahibe village.
How long is the tour?
About 3 hours door to door, including private hotel transport, the guided jungle walk and the snorkeling session.
What is included?
Private transportation, snorkeling equipment, your local guide and all fees and taxes are included. Tips and bottled water are not, so bring your own water.
How big is the group?
Groups are capped at 8 guests, so you snorkel with your guide rather than in a crowd.
Do I need to be a strong swimmer?
You should be comfortable in the water, but the cenote is calm and your guide stays with the group. Let them know your comfort level before you get in.
Is there a fitness requirement?
A moderate fitness level is recommended for the jungle walk. The tour is not recommended for travelers with poor cardiovascular health, or for guests over 70 unless in excellent physical condition.
How much does it cost?
Tickets start at $55 per person. Check availability for current pricing on your date.
What should I bring?
Water shoes, a towel, a swimsuit and drinking water. Skip the sunscreen right before the swim; the cenote is a protected freshwater environment, and your guide will advise.
What is the cancellation policy?
This tour follows our standard policy: free cancellation up to 24 hours before departure for a full refund.
When is the best time to visit the cenotes?
The cenotes are sheltered by jungle and swimmable year round. Mornings are the quietest and the light through the trees is at its best.
How is this different from a catamaran snorkeling tour?
Sea tours like the Catalina Island catamaran are about reefs and open water. This is a jungle walk and a freshwater cavern swim in a group of eight, a quieter and more unusual experience.
