Let us take you into the wonderful hidden world of the Cenotes!

Millions of years ago the Yucatan Peninsula was covered by the sea.

Today there is an incredible clear freshwater underground river system of caverns and caves. The Mayans knew these mysterious and magic places as CENOTES.

At one time, Cenotes were the only source of fresh water for the Mayans; they were considered a gift of GOD CHAK, their God of water.
