Advice for your Cenote trip
These 10 simple pieces of advice will ensure you enjoy your cenote visit to the max!
• Take your own towels ~ they are rarely available onsite
• Bring cash pesos ~ few cenotes accepts USD and even less take cards
• Use a small waterproof camera to save those memories
• Drink lots of water - use refillable bottles*, not plastic
• Shower before entering the cenote to remove all sunscreen/skincreams ~ the chemicals damage the ecosystem and also make the water murky
• Pay attention to safety signs - swim at your own risk / watch your footing - travel insurance* is recommended
• Use a guide for any diving - the dangers are real
• Secure any valuables out of sight before going in the cenote, better yet, leave them at your accommodation
• Take your trash away with you
• Double check you have all your belongings with you when you leave
