Akumal turtle snorkeling and Mariposa cenote swimming

Akumal is one of the Riviera Maya's best-known places for sea turtles and tropical fish. Guided snorkeling gives you a chance to encounter marine life in its natural environment, although wildlife sightings can never be guaranteed.

The contrast comes at Mariposa cenote, where you can swim in freshwater and unwind during the roughly two-hour stop at Canamayte Eco Park.
