But is there anything better to do on a hot day than relax in a fresh, crystal clear naturally made pool of water? Well, around here we call them cenotes. There are so many of them, but my favorite is Dos Ojos (2 eyes), named for its 2 large swimming holes. These cenotes are linked to caverns that run up and down the coast of the Yucatan Peninsula.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Dos Ojos is about 10-15 minutes north of Tulum, almost opposite Xel-ha, another great place to relax on asunny day.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<br \/>\nIt\u2019s entrance is located right on the highway. From there you need to travel inland about 2km. If you are driving yourself, you just pay the entrance fee and continue on to the cenote. If you don\u2019t have transport, there are tours available. After arriving at the entrance you can talk with the happy staff and they can offer you guides, snorkeling tours or diving tours. You can also rent equipment from them if you don\u2019t have any of your own.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>On the drive inland towards the Cenote, you can catch a glimpse of nature at its best. There are some animals about, and you can always see birds flying around.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<br \/>\nThe Cenote itself is quite large even though it might not look that way. It\u2019s a very popular site for diving and snorkeling. There are some hammocks around that you can relax in. I would suggest taking a picnic lunch, but just remember not to lave any garbage lying around. There are some stores to buy cold drinks and snacks or a special souvenir. All in all it\u2019s a great day to be had buy the whole family.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.topmexicorealestate.com\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>TOPMexicoRealEstate.com<\/strong><\/a><strong>; Mexico&#8217;s Leading Network of Specialists for Finding and Purchasing Mexican Properties Safely<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.topmexicorealestate.com\/real-estate-books\/?web=Blog\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/dashboard.lloyd-team.com\/1-images\/Banners\/Banner261-A.jpeg \" alt=\"Mexico Real Estate e-book\" width=\"464\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Living in Mexico can be hot sometimes!
