History
The Yucatán’s cenotes are karst sinkholes formed when limestone collapsed, historically vital to Maya communities for freshwater and ritual use; Tulum grew as a coastal trading port tied to that network.

Cenote ecosystems are fragile—use reef-safe sunscreen, avoid soaps in the water, and follow guide instructions to minimize impact.
