The engine coughs to life and the jungle answers — palms whisper, limestone dust lifts, and the single-track from El Cedral rips a bright line through Cozumel’s low woodland. On this ATV outing you move from the rumble of the beach-side town to the cool hush of a caved cenote, arriving where sunlight threads through a hole and stalactites hang like an underground forest daring you to jump in.
