Río Secreto Nature Reserve from Playa del Carmen

Delve into a hidden world beneath the Riviera Maya as you journey through the Río Secreto Nature Reserve, a breathtaking underground river system carved over millions of years. Your adventure begins inside a mystical cenote, where crystal-clear turquoise waters, towering stalactites, and intricate stalagmites create a natural cathedral unlike anything on the surface. Guided by local experts, you’ll wade and walk through the silent caverns while learning about the geology, flora, and fauna that make this ecosystem so unique. After resurfacing into the lush jungle, you’ll be treated to a delicious buffet lunch featuring authentic Mayan cuisine to complete the experience.

To suit every type of traveler, Río Secreto offers six exciting tour options ranging from admission-only access to fully guided combo adventures. Choose from basic cave exploration with or without transportation, or upgrade to packages that include exciting additions such as bike rides, rappelling, dry cave hikes, snorkeling on the Puerto Morelos reef, or cultural excursions to nearby archaeological wonders like Tulum and Cobá. Whether you seek pure nature, history, or high-energy activities, Río Secreto provides an unforgettable journey into the beauty and mystery of the Yucatán Peninsula.
