Even for me, it’s uncommon {that a} one-day journey will embody rappelling, cliff leaping, kayaking, snorkeling and zip lining. Very uncommon. <\/em>But, all of the aforementioned occurred on the Xenotes Oasis Maya<\/a>\u00a0cenote tour leaving from Cancun<\/a> and touring by way of the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico.<\/p>\n

5 Adventures. 4 Cenotes. 1 Day. Holler.<\/h3>\n

Cenotes are pure water-filled sinkholes that type when rainfall causes the layer over the cavern to break down. The Yucatan Peninsula has an estimated 7000<\/strong><\/em> of them. With so many, touring to solely 4 of them in in the future doesn\u2019t seem to be such a feat.<\/p>\n

Peter and I\u00a0had been picked up from our resort at 9 within the morning, which was welcome after the 6:25am name time to swim with whale sharks<\/a> the morning earlier than. We had been instantly on our technique to the primary cenote.<\/p>\n

The premiere cenote was named\u00a0Ok\u2019\u00e1ak\u00b4, that means fireplace. The journey for this one was to seize onto a zipper line, trip it till you’re in the midst of the cenote after which drop into the brisk water.\u00a0I used to be a bit bit afraid of how chilly the water was on this first sinkhole, so I’ll have held onto the zip line a pair seconds too lengthy, which meant that my drop into the water wasn\u2019t so deep.<\/p>\n

Cliff leaping from 12 ft up will make up for that.<\/h3>\n

After the zip line, we took a brief swim by way of the cenote after which reached the elective cliff soar. There was probably not an choice for me. I knew I used to be leaping. The platform appeared about 12 ft up\u00a0from the water, which doesn\u2019t sound like that far\u2026till, you’re looking down.<\/p>\n

I took two steps and jumped. My face stated all of it.\u00a0Fear.<\/em><\/p>\n
