Review & Frequenly Asked Questions:

In Maya tradition, cenotes were regarded as gateways to the afterlife. To modern day geologists, they’re sink holes. However, travelers want to look at it, the cenotes of Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula are nothing short of dazzling. Cenote Xkeken is among a number of naturally formed cenotes; it is the most popular and arguably the prettiest. This gorgeous cenote is easily accessible and waiting to be explored. Visitors can expect to swim in beautiful blue-green water that is crystal clear, floating under a domed canopy of ethereal stalactites and curious rock formations. Rays of sunlight peek through the dome, changing the ambience with the shifting light of day. Cenote Xkeken is a 20-minute taxi ride from Valladolid.
