A wilder, less-touristed cenote known for jumping platforms and a single dramatic vertical cave. More physical than Gran Cenote; better for adventurous swimmers who want less crowd and more drama.
Why It’s Worth Your Time
Cenote Calavera (also called Temple of Doom) is the thrill-seeker cenote — two naturally formed holes in the limestone surface allow visitors to jump into the cenote below at different heights. The cave walls are draped in roots. The water is crystal clear and deep. A diving platform and swing are also available. Significantly less crowded than Gran Cenote and just 5 minutes away by bike. Combine with lunch at Cetli next door.
