The word cenote comes
from the Mayan dzonot, meaning cave with water. There are cenotes
open, semi-open and closed or grottos. The cenotes constituted the largest
supply of fresh water for the Mayans and were used as natural burial chambers,
you will be amazed by the mysticism and beauty that surrounds the cenotes in
Riviera Maya.
Rappel
Whether you've practiced
this activity or is your first time doing rappel, we assure you will enjoy it
to the fullest. This activity is taken in the cenote "Lu´um".
There will be no location or surroundings that can compare to the rock
formations found in this unparalleled cenote. Lu’um is a semi-open cenote. It
connects to the aquifer through tunnels and caves. The flow of water is
horizontal and the amount of time the water stays put is usually short. The
Xenote is still semi-closed, thus it is considered young.

Iik’ is an advanced age cenote known as ancient cenote. This type of
Xenote is blocked from the watertable due to the collapsed roof or walls
and sediments, which make the exchange with underground currents restricted and
the flow of water a lot slower.

lush jungle and admire the exotic flora that surrounds the cenote K’áak
There are inner tubes available for those who prefer a more relaxing ride. K'áak ´ is an open Xenote that
allows underground currents to communicate with the jungle and light. Among its
