Snorkeling...

On our final day in Mexico we enjoyed a nice and relaxing day of snorkeling. We went to a beautiful place called Xel-Ha! This is an inlet of the Caribbean Sea where the salt water mixes with the fresh water of a river. It has pretty much been turned into a natural tourist attraction.



We started the day by floating through the tree roots down the river toward the inlet.


Once we made it through the trees, we made it to this awesome bridge and area for cliff diving!


 At this point we ditched our tubes and headed out to snorkel as we floated down the river current!


 After a bit of snorkeling we came to an area where we were able to zip line and walk the tight rope!



 Back to snorkeling!



STING RAYS!!!

 All the fish in the sea!!!
  
  


 After snorkeling for a while, we got out of the water and hiked around the inlet til we found the Cueva Maya/ Mayan Cave! It was this cool cave that had light from above. They told us that was where people often went to bathe. It was a pretty cool place!



We had such a fun day floating, snorkeling, hiking and exploring the area!!!
