If you want to scuba dive or snorkel in a cenote while you are in Cancun or the Riviera Maya, read about our experience diving in Dos Ochos, an underground cave system in the Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico.
Riding a SkyCycle through the treetops at Hidden Worlds you can stop to enjoy the scenery and listen to the birds sing. The family-oriented Hidden Worlds adventure park is tucked into the jungle. Here, you can also ride a zipline or rappel into a centoe. The staff is bilingual at this non-profit park (proceeds go to benefit varous Third C World causes) and many of the people working at the park are members of the local Mayan community.
If you want to escape from crowded beaches, go horseback riding along a beach and in the surf, take an ATV ride through the jungle, or go kayaking and snorkeling off a private, pristine beach, plan at day at Punta Venado.
Most of these adventure parks and dive operations offer transportation to and from hotels and lodging in Riviera Maya and Cancun, for a fee.
