Drive along the bumpy offroad path deep into the Mayan Jungle and learn about its flora and fauna until we arrive to Cozumel's biggest known Cenote. Unlike the massive Cenotes in Yucatan, this one is a little different. The cenote Jade or originally named "Chempita" is a smaller Cenote with winding stairs so you can climb down in to it. Here our guide will teach you some history about Cenotes as well as show you some of the local species. Many times you will find bats peacefully hanging upside down sleeping, waiting for the sun to go down so they can find something to eat.

Once we arrive to the beach club, our friendly guide will accommodate your family at a table and show you the facilities. Bar, bathrooms, changing rooms, showers, and lounge chairs are all included. Order up your included Mexican lunch with a choice of chicken, beef or fish fajitas. After eating, our guide will get you set up with snorkeling gear and give you a rundown on how to use the equipment. The visibility is outstanding in the Caribbean waters. You will be sure to see an array of different species of colorful tropical fish as you swim above the coral reef system. In the water are also floating toys and a trampoline that you are welcome to climb on. Or you can choose to sit back on a waterfront lounge chair as you catch some rays of sun and listen to the waves gently crashing along the beach shore. There is not much in the world that is more relaxing than a nice beach break.
