More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
A full-day excursion from the Riviera Maya moves quickly between water and air: travelers start by slipping into the calm, clear channel of Yal-Kú where a mangrove throat eases them from lagoon to sea, then descend into the cool, filtered light of an Aktun cenote before ending the day flying across forest canopy on seven ziplines and a guided 20‑m rappel.

Use reef‑safe sunscreen
Bring and apply biodegradable sunscreen before entering water to protect coral and cenote ecosystems.
Bring water shoes
Cenote access and coastal rocks are slippery—closed‑toe water shoes improve traction and protect feet.
Respect the weight limit
Zipline systems have a maximum of 135 kg (300 lb); organizers will refuse participation above that limit for safety.
Hydrate and bring cash
Eight‑plus hours in sun and activity require water; small local purchases and gratuities are often cash‑preferred.
Swimsuit
Wear under clothing for quick transitions between snorkeling and land activities.
Water shoes
Protect feet on slippery cenote steps, rocky shorelines, and during boat or beach transfers.
Biodegradable sunscreen
Protects skin while minimizing damage to reef and cenote ecosystems.
Dry bag & quick‑dry towel
Keeps valuables dry during boat, zipline, and cenote segments; helps with post‑swim comfort.
