The morning air in the Riviera Maya feels like a held breath—the jungle around Puerto Morelos quietly awake, leaves slick with humidity and birds sketching fast lines through the canopy. You step onto the safari truck and the guide counts heads; a ribbon of platforms and cables unfurls ahead, ten ziplines stitched across nearly two miles (3 km) of trees. When you launch, gravity does the talking and the jungle answers, the treetops nudging at your boots as the world drops away.
