This new activity is sister of the successful Five Cenotes Jungle Experience, which you can find on this platform too, and I invite you to please check all the great 5-star reviews from all my guests participating, to have an idea of our excellent service!

For all of you, I added the amazing snorkelling with turtles at Akumal Bay to the exploration of three different cenotes, inside a private community.

Pickup is in Playa del Carmen, to first going to Akumal Bay and snorkelling with the turtles, to later on moving to explore three different cenotes, located in the same area, at a walkable distance from each other.
We finally end back to Playa del Carmen, having a great meal, at a nice international restaurant, with plenty options of great food (including great vegetarian options)

IMPORTANT:
In case the Port Captaincy will not allow swimming activities at Akumal Bay, due to strong wind or bad weather conditions, we offer you to explore 5 cenotes, or perhaps reschedule your activity.

WHAT'S INCLUDED

WHAT TO EXPECT

1. Akumal Bay
Akumal Bay is the only place where to be sure to swim with sea turtles, protected by a natural reef and free to swim in the bay while eating the grass and reproducing themself. We use the facilities of the main diving centre in the area, with lockers, bathrooms and showers, plus the service of an expert local guide, that will show you the turtles. We take you first to the reef, using a speed boat, starting to swim there and see different corals and local fishes, stingrays, starfishes, etc; later on, we watch the turtles, in their natural environment, making sure we use the life jackets and staying in horizontal position, not touching them, but eventually taking pictures or videos, from the water surface. It's really important to understand we are not in a pool with turtles, but they are free in the ocean, so the average number of turtles we see is two or three, possibly of different sizes, from big ones to small little babies. Please the use of sunscreen is not allowed; thank you.
2.
The cenotes we visit are (fortunately!) not listed on the map, because we enter a private community, having chances to explore the place on our own, walking from one cenote to the other, and most of the time staying alone there, in real contact with Mother Nature. Our target is avoiding the big crowds (typical of the other places), giving chances to our guests to be in a quiet and calm area, where swimming in different cenotes, with crystal blue waters, and just listening to birds, while admiring those amazing caves and trees. Life jackets and goggles are included too. Water temperature could be fresh during the winter, so we suggest bringing perhaps a rashguard, if you feel so. Use of Gopro or personal cell phones is allowed, to take pictures and videos, to remember such a unique experience! All cenotes are nice, but to experience them alone in the jungle, is a different feeling and that's what makes our activity so special. Water shoes could be more comfortable for you. Welcome
3.
For all the guests booking the experience WITH the food included, we will take you to this 5-star restaurant, where you enjoy great food, a 3-course meal (from Monday to Friday), a main course (on weekends or national holidays), and the delicious fresh fruit water of the day!

My daughter and I spent 10 days in Mexico touring around the Yucatán Peninsula and the day we spent with Fabio was by far the best day of the trip. He is extremely knowledgeable about the various spots we visited and has some great stories. When we go back we will definitely find out what experiences he is leading and sign up.

The experience with Fabio was very good from the beginning, he picked us up at our accommodation, then we headed to swim with turtles, something that my daughters loved, especially because the guide was very good. After that we visited 3 incredible cenotes, they are better than in the photos. Fabio's company was excellent, he told us a little history of these places. In the end a delicious lunch like at home. 100% recommended.

Top notch experience with the best guide Fabio. He communicated what to expect, where to meet, and throughout the whole day. Very small group and we went to a hidden private cenotes. We will be contacting him the next time in Playa del Carmen!
