So get ready for adventure as you leave the white sands of the Mexican Caribbean, if just for a moment. I have a 4 must-see places in Riviera Maya that you need to visit if you are around.
–
- 1.Cenotes (sinkholes): These natural wells are fed by clear subterranean rivers. Each is perfect for spending the entire day in the sun and dipping in when you feel the heat. There are a number of them to choose from in the local area- but they have limited public access. With a tour guide your family can enjoy these tranquil natural sites and view plenty of wildlife along the way.

- 2.Xel-Ha: This natural eco-park gives us the opportunity to interact with and observe the underwater world and really learn about local sea life. This is one of the biggest eco-parks in the world, where people of all ages can enjoy different aquatic sports: snuba, snorkel, sea trekking and zip lining. If you get the ticket on their website, you can get a special rate that includes food and drinks at their restaurants and bars.
