Cenote Azul

This striking underground cenote reveals a dramatic sinkhole with a pristine freshwater pool framed by towering limestone walls draped in vines and vegetation. The crystalline turquoise water invites swimmers to cool off in an otherworldly setting that feels removed from the beach resort bustle of nearby Playa del Carmen. Local guides share stories of cenote significance to the ancient Maya while you float beneath the open sky in this natural cathedral.
