We went there by bike. It was totally doable, but you ride along a fast road. We paid 300 pesos for both cenotes and it was definitely worth it for us :) When we were there, there were only 2-3 other groups and it wasn't crowded at all. There are ropes and a tower for jumping and the water is crystal clear. And: We loved the hammocks at the Cenote crystal!

Affordable cenote that is easy to access. Very simple and quiet. There is a platform to jump that is good for beginners. Life jackets are provided for free, only need to give ID. There are benches around the cenote to leave your stuff and relax.

Very nice cenote, clear and clean water, perfect for snorkeling and diving. Not too many people there and enough space to sit at tables, benches or chill in hammocks. There are options to jump in the cenote, either with a rope from the ground level or an about 3,5m (just guessing) platform.
Many animals to observe, like fishes and turtles in the water and lizards and beautiful birds on land. The small fishes can give you a natural pedicure if you let them and if you're patient enough :)
Pay attention to not use sunscreen or other waterpolluting things when swimming.
Entrance fee was 150 pesos per person (in November 2024).

Small Cenote. Great for snorkelling. We arrived at 10am and we were the only ones in the water. By 11 30am there were maybe 15 people there. Easy to get to by collectivo. 5 min from Telum. Cost was 150 pesos. Good alternative to the busier Cenotes! :)

I love this cenote. It’s great value for money. Parking is free and entry is 150 per adult and 100 for kids until 11. Oct2024 .
The kids love jumping from the platform and it’s a very relaxed atmosphere. Not a great many animals or turtles. But shade and beautiful clear water.

Superb cave dive. Entrance is on the right, long connection. Quite silty, watch out not to stir it up. Popular place, put your line correctly not to lock other teams out. Very dark in the shallows, white in the deeper parts. Also called Naharon, so don't mix it up with the other cenote Naharon which is marked on google maps in a different location. Entrance fee was 300 pesos for divers in December 2024

The teens and I spent the entire day here. Only one cenote (of the two were open) so we paid $150 peso versus $300 to hang out. There are picnic tables in the shade and hammocks spread out. You pay $50 pesos to bring in a cooler, so bring your snacks and water. There is a small diving platform, a rope to hang out in the cenote and a small rope swing.
There were baby turtles swimming so bring your snorkel. Scuba divers were there as I’m told there is a cave that connects the cenotes. Such a cool peaceful find and a great way to see fish and turtles without the huge tourist prices and crowds. Staff were great and friendly. They had a lifeguard walking around making sure everyone was being safe and responsible.

Cenote Cristal is gorgeous. There were maybe 30 people there, including locals. You can pay one price and get into Cristal and Escondido across the street. Both are amazing. Neither have food for sale, so bring food and water/drinks. There are tables and hammocks. The cenote is small, crystal clear, and Eden-like.
