ATV's-Zip Line-Cenote Tour

One of the other excursions we went on during our stay in Mexico was an ATV ride through the jungle to some zip lines and Cenotes! This was our "fun" tour (they all were amazing though)! We had a blast blazing through the jungle on the dirty road.

 It was so cool. We drove miles into the jungle, and all around were little shacks that were homes to the people. It's so interesting, because the people there pretty much sleep inside, but all cooking and living is done outside. They were so nice and everyone would wave to us as we drove by!
 Getting ready to ZIP!!!


 After our zip line trip, we walked in to the Cenote Kin-Ha, which if I remember correctly means Sun-Water. Basically representing where the sun meets the water.

 You seriously walk up and there's just a huge hole in the ground with a board across it. We had to walk onto the board and take a "leap of faith" and just jump in! It was scary, because you could see water below, but no clue on how far down it was or anything. It was fun! As we came up out of the water we were so disoriented, because it was so dark down there.

 They had fun swings, zip lines, hammocks, kayaks, everything to go around and explore!










 After spending some time swimming and enjoying the water, we climbed out and hiked to another cenote that was more open. It was a 60 and 75 foot jump from above. A bunch of crazy people did that one, even Justin!



This was such a fun day! We were filthy and wiped out by the end of the day, and enjoyed some time at the pool when we got back to the resort!

Thanks for sharing this! We only usually do trips to Alaska and Barkley Lake for some ATV fun. It seems that this one in Mexico offers a lot more activities while riding around ATV’s. I’ll definitely bring this up over the weekend with the family. And maybe next month, we can plan a 5-day stay there.
