Xotik-Ha EcoPark
The Basics
This popular adventure park in Xpu-Ha offers ropes courses for all ages and ability levels. Its 10 acres (4 hectares) of tropical forest and wetlands also feature over 20 ruins and numerous bird species. Spot monkeys, coatimundis, flamingos, and turtles—the layout of the park allows for up-close wildlife viewing. Visitors to Xotik-Ha can scuba dive in the cenote's vast network of underground rivers and caves, and swim or snorkel in its natural pools.

Xpu-Ha Beach
Stretching around a secluded cove, Xpu-Ha’s white-sand beach is one of the Riviera Maya’s best-kept secrets and a favorite destination for kitesurfing, stand-up paddleboarding, and relaxing. Its serene setting offers a nice alternative to the noise and excitement of Cancun’s beaches, and good snorkeling is just a short swim from shore.
