Gran Cenote

Beautiful Cenote closed to Tulum, amazing experience in where you can swim in clear water and seeing the wildlife active in this Cenote. It is really big Cenote with well organised access and the property is really well maintained to protect the nature. Highly advising you to make a stop to refresh and disconnect. Mask & Tuba are available to rent on-site. Thank you for the welcome

We went on a Thursday afternoon. It wasn’t busy, there were probably 3 other groups there. Its rather expensive and except ONLY CASH but includes the snorkeling gear. There’s a large courtyard when you walk in with covered tables. You walk down a lot of stairs (there’s 2 entrances and stair way) to get to the cenote. There’s many turtles in the cenote that you can see while swimming. The water was amazingly turquoise. This property is exquisitely maintained.

Stunningly gorgeous, and super cool. The water was very clear and there were many stalagmites to swim around. $30 and they ONLY take cash, but worth every penny. Go on a weekday though. And Shower more!

The only tourist thing I did during my trip and it didn’t disappoint. I heard there are a lot of cenotes so it was hard to choose one but I’m glad we decided to come here. I recommend renting a vehicle as parking is free at the entrance but you could taxi here, just harder to get one leaving. It’s about $20 usd for admission (they take credit card) which includes your life jacket and goggles. They have areas to sun tan, picnic spots and showers but no in and outs. There’s 2 entrances down to the cenote and you can swim through to each side. The water was beautiful and clear with little turtles and bats in the cave. If you bring valuables, there are lockers you can rent to store your belongs. I’ve been to a couple other cenotes and I have to say this was the nicest and biggest one I’ve been to so far. I would recommend checking out this one when in Tulum.

An incredible semi-open cenote, actually comprised of two cenotes interconnected by a tunnel cave. The entrance fee is slightly higher at $500, but it includes mandatory vests, and we only paid an additional $30-50 at the cenote for a locker, plus we received complimentary goggles (against ID or by leaving car keys). The do not rent snorkel. There are turtles swimming around you, making it an unforgettable experience. The smaller cenote is particularly Instagram-worthy with its crystal-clear water. Parking is conveniently located right in front of the cenote, by the roadside, although it's not clearly marked. It's on the maps, though!

Beautiful and crystal clear blue water. Cave formations are visible very easily. Part of the swimming path takes you into a small opening inside caves. Do not miss this when in Tulum it's absolutely worth it. There are no guided tours. Ticket price includes entry, snorkel gear, and life vest. Bring your own food and drinks to enjoy after the swim. There are no restaurants inside. Ticket can be purchased on arrival. Cash only. 500 MXN pesos or USD 30 per person. Best time to visit is early in the morning, preferably weekday, to avoid crowds. It's a very popular tourist spot, with shuttle buses dropping off large crowds, so it can get very crowded late mornings / afternoons. Best way to reach here is via bike or scooter or car. Collectivo headed towards coba also stops right in the front and is the cheapest way to get here

We went in the morning during the week and there were very few people there. The area is awesome and the water was very clear. I'd recommend renting a snorkel from the stand inside to explore the caves. It was 100% worth it. Be prepared, you will need to rinse off before entering the cenote (to rinse off any sunscreen, bug spray, etc. to protect the area). The shower water is brisk but well worth it.

Beautiful blue water and truly an amazing experience! We went there early in the morning and spend 3 hrs swimming in the cenote. The formation of caves underwater, swimming with fishes, turtles made it so memorable.
