"Very clear and deep water - visibility 40m, depth 70m. What is very surpricing, that I did not see any fish in.
There are rocks for jumps.
When we came, we were alone in cenote. It was so quier and so magic.
Little later came teenagers with very loud music and alcohol. I got know from local girl, that during the weekends can cenote get quite bussy."
Romana Ertlova
"Incredible! The road to get in is very bumpy, though, so make sure your shocks and tires are in good shape and add extra time for covering the rough terrain. Add extra time to stay for awhile!! Pack a picnic, bring a mask, because it’s one of the most stunning swimming spots I’ve ever experienced."
Alia Kahan
"Amazing place!
You must come with swimming glasses to explore the lake.
You can also jump from a 8 meter cliff."
