Cenote Calavera

The cenote is located close to the town and is easy to reach — we walked there. There is an entrance fee, and there’s an extra charge if you want to use a camera. Life jackets are also available for an additional fee. The cenote isn’t very big, but the area is well-maintained, clean, and beautiful. You can swim, watch the fish, or observe the bats. There’s also a platform for jumping into the water. We arrived about two hours after opening and stayed until closing. It wasn’t too crowded. There are hammocks and loungers where you can relax, as well as a bar and food available for order. There are also showers and restrooms on-site. Make sure to use reef-safe sunscreen — think about nature! 🌿

Such a fun cenote, you don’t need a life jacket which is great if you want to jump through the holes. We went at 4pm on a Monday. I believe it was $300 pesos cash only at the entrance. They charge extra if you bring a professional camera but phone is okay. Since it was end of day, there was barely any people there so we got to enjoy the place and take photos as we wanted. We tried their margaritas which were very nice and the ceviche was so tasteful. A bit on the expensive side compared to the center of Tulum but not crazy expensive. Overall it’s a pretty nice cenote to go visit

My favorite cenote experience. It was more low key then others and actually had some time there all to myself. Beautiful clear water and was great temp for swimming in. The adventure of jumping was exhilarating.

Beautiful cenote - we walked there and took us 20 minutes from Tulum Centro. 250 pesos per person. You have to pay extra to bring in go pro or camera. The food and drink options are on the expensive side but were enjoyable. The cenote was fun with two smaller holes you could jump through or the bigger entrance with a ladder. There were lots of birds flying around the cave and a few bats. It was quite quiet when we went. Overall the spot was very picturesque.

Good experience! Although it’s one of the smaller cenotes, it’s conveniently located near Tulum town. The friendly food vendors offer delicious food at reasonable prices. The restrooms are clean, and the place has been designed to provide some great photo opportunities.

What an awesome experience! Great price; friendly staff (unlike Grand Cenote just up the road which is expensive and rude) Granted there are no turtles here but jumping into the big cave or through the tiny gaps in the rock is such an awesome experience. They have comfortable chairs to relax and chill between plunges, and the staff at the bar/ restaurant were very nice. Might be difficult with small kids because if you are unwilling to jump in, you have to climb down a big slimy ladder.

Jumping in to this cenote was a lot of fun! The location allows for lots of people watching, which was also entertaining. Food and drinks are expensive, but tasty. Entrance fee is $17 dollars/per person. Highly recommended.

Great cenote, small but great jump areas 17$ per person (cash recommended, 5% more by card)
