The Mayan Riviera hosts an incredible natural aquatic theme park created by the Mayan gods themselves: Xel-Ha. This special place gathers the best of the Mexican Caribbean all in one place.

Hotel pickups occur from 7:00-7:30am. Please be ready in your hotel lobby at 7:00am.

Enjoy nature through the crystal clear waters of this spectacular natural aquarium. An environment of creeks, lagoons, natural wells and ancient caves is fed by underground rivers flowing out to the beautiful Caribbean Sea. Explore the underwater world by snorkel and come face to face with exotic underwater flora and fauna such as curious rays and schools of French Angel fish. Other activities include cliff diving, rope swing diving, rope bridge walking, bicycling, kayaking, swimming with the dolphins, snuba diving, underwater breathing bubble, scuba diving and much more!

Eco-Tour
Take an Eco-Tour included with admission (subject to availability). Walk through the Caribbean jungle, across a hanging bridge and through the natural habitat of the Loro Fish. Then your guide will lead you to explore a Mayan Cave and learn about the importance of Xel-Ha which once served as a commercial port. You’ll also visit two underwater grottoes: Aventura Cenote and Cenote Paraiso. If you’re feeling adventurous, head to “brave stone” for an exciting challenge. You will also visit:

• Nursery Garden: Explore natural medicine and Mayan culture.
• Bee Nest: Learn about the healing honey produced by the Sacred Mayan Bee.
• Orchid Garden: Enjoy and learn about our many beautiful species.
  
• Mayan Cross Replica: Learn about this relic and the historic battle of the castes.
• Mayan House: Visit a historic replica of a traditional Mayan home and learn about their way of life.

We will leave Xel-Ha when the park closes at 5:00pm, arriving back to the first Cancun hotel by 6:30pm.
