Cenote Cristalino: Peaceful Getaway.

María Gutiérrez

Who hasn't dreamed of escaping from everything? Get away from work, school, responsibilities… or even better, going on an adventure with friends or with that special person. Now, imagine yourself escaping to the Riviera Maya! That’s better huh?

The Riviera Maya is so much more than crowded beaches and nightclubs; there are hidden places in this paradise that promise to be perfect to find that calm and peace that you are looking for. Yup, I’m talking about a cenote, the Cenote Cristalino.


Cenote Cristalino (Crystal-clear Sinkhole) is located on the Cancun-Tulum highway, 3 km away from Puerto Aventuras (a 5 minutes car ride). You need to be very cautious because its sign is a bit small and hidden, so be careful or you might miss it.


The entrance fee is 100 pesos for kids (6 USD) and 150 for adults (8 USD). You can take your snorkeling gear and life vest or rent them for an extra 50 pesos (3 USD). Besides the cenote, you’ll find convenient facilities including a changing area and very clean bathrooms. Also, you are free to bring your own food along and have lunch, but if you forget to do so, you can buy some snacks here.

The cenote is pretty wide and you can swim freely without being worried about the crowds. As its name says, the water in this sinkhole is crystal-clear, allowing you to see the many fish living in it. If you stay quiet enough for a while, they will approach you and suck on your skin giving you tiny kisses that will make you tickle. They are very friendly!


Last but not least, for the adventurous travelers, you will find a 4-meters cliff (12 feet) where you can test your courage and dare yourself to jump into the water. It is very fun!

But wait a minute, is the cenote safe?
Yes, it is! The water is not very deep at some points, and there are some rocks that you can step on if you don’t want to swim. Plus, there are lifeguards around that are always alert.

Is it good idea taking kids?
Of course! Cenote Cristalino is 100% familiar. They’ll be completely safe and have a great time.

Can I go any day of the week?
Yes, it is open all week from 9 AM till 6 PM. However, Sunday is the day people visit it the most, so if you want to avoid big crowds, we recommend you go on weekdays.

Visit this paradise and enjoy a day filled with fun and rest! If you need a ride to get there, contact us and we’ll give you a quote.
