If you’re looking for a unique experience in Tulum, Mexico, you must visit the Cenote Calavera Tulum. We recently visited this cenote and was completely blown away.
In this blog post, we’re excited to share our review of the Cenote Calavera Tulum and give you the inside information on what to expect.
First and foremost, let’s talk about the neighborhood. The Cenote Calavera is nestled in the jungle of Tulum, surrounded by amazing nature. The cenote is named after the skull-like shape formed by the two openings on the surface. This one-of-a-kind opening allows sunlight to illuminate the waters, creating a lovely reflection. The turquoise waters of the cenote, with its rocky landscape and limestone formations, will take your breath away. We really felt the magic as soon as we entered the location.
Second, let’s talk about snorkeling. The water is crystal clear, providing an incredible view of the underwater life. You can see different types of fish and turtles swimming around you, and you might even discover some hidden corners of the cenote. The depth is approximately 16 feet (5 meters), making it an ideal location for a jump. There are also various platforms from which to dive, some higher than others depending on your level of adventure. You could compare the Cenote Calavera to Cenote Zaci.
Next are the facilities. There are showers in the changing rooms, bathrooms, and outdoor areas to relax. Bring a towel and set up your spot around the area, or rent a sun umbrella to protect yourself from the sun. It is recommended that you bring your snorkeling equipment, but you can also rent it on site if necessary.
Fourth, let us discuss the safety of Cenote Calavera. When entering the water, remember to follow the safety rules. Showering before entering the cenote ensures that the water remains clean. The Cenote team also provides life jackets to ensure that anyone who requires assistance in the water feels safe. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful, and they are always available to answer any questions you may have. Visitors are also asked not to bring any single-use plastics, as they are committed to being environmentally friendly.
The Cenote Calavera is an excellent choice for a relaxing and enjoyable swim adventure. The beautiful surroundings, crystal clear water, and excellent facilities make for a relaxing visit. Whether you’re traveling alone or with a group, the Cenote Calavera is an unforgettable experience. Overall, it’s a fantastic – and unforgettable – one-of-a-kind experience that you won’t want to miss. If you love visiting cenotes, make sure you also check out Isla Mujeres on the coast of Mexico and Nayarit Playas.
