Hidden Worlds Cenotes Park
You might recognize Hidden Worlds from the IMAX movie “Journey into Amazing Caves” which was filmed here. Cenotes are large sinkholes filled with fresh water. Snorkeling or diving allows a visitor to explore the beautiful underwater stalagmites and rock formations. Hidden Worlds offers professionally guided snorkeling and diving tours, and beginners are welcome.
Cobá
Unlike Chichen-Itza, you can still climb the ruins of Coba. The name of these Mayan ruins means “water stirred by wind,” probably because the site is located between several lakes. At one point Cobá was a city covering 27 square miles with a population estimated at 55,000. Fewer tourists visit these ruins since they are farther away from Playa than the more popular Tulum site.
Altournative Tours
This eco-tour company has been offering excursions since 1999 and is helping towns use what they have to improve their way of life.
