Beautiful Diving / Snorkeling (Xel-Ha Park #3) Maya Riviera, Caribbean Sea, Tulum Mexico
Freediving Exploration and Videography of beautiful underwater locations, culture and life. Part 3 of diving trip to Parque Xel-Ha Tulum Mexico in Maya Riviera.
Xel-Ha Park (Parque Xel-Há) is a commercial aquatic theme park and ecotourism development located on the Caribbean coast of the state of Quintana Roo, Mexico, in the municipality of Solidaridad. It is part of Xcaret Experiencias Group which also owns the Xplor Park, Xcaret Park, and Xenses Park; as well as the Xichen, Xenotes, and Xoximilco tours and activities. It is situated within the Riviera Maya, a region promoted as a tourism corridor along Highway 307. It is approximately 240 kilometres (149 mi) to the north of Chetumal, and 122 kilometres (76 mi) south of Cancun. The park is named after the site of Xelha, an archaeological site of the pre-Columbian Maya civilization, part of which is located within the lands leased to the park. The Maya site of Tulum is nearby, some 13 kilometres (8.1 mi) to the south.
The theme park was founded in 1984,[3] and is under the management and marketing of the Mexican-owned Experiencias Xcaret Group.[4]
The park is centered around the natural inlet and lagoon, which is promoted as one of the main attractions of the park that forms with the flow of the river through rocks mixing salty waters with fresh underground water currents.
The inlet of Xel-Há is a natural aquarium where hundreds of species inhabit; such as tropical fish and an abundant flora. In the park there is also a turtle reserve, where research is constantly carried out to learn more about marine life and contribute with the ecological maintenance of the area.
A shark fence extends across the lagoon's entrance, and the public is permitted to swim and snorkel in the lagoon. Underwater the limestone has been eroded into a myriad of small caves and grottos. A variety of aquatic-based activities are offered by the theme park, including snorkelling, scuba diving, and swimming with dolphins.
In early 2014, Xel-ha became the first tourist park in the world to obtain an EarthCheck Gold certification, in part because the park invests in sustainability programs, buys local products and trains its staff on environmental care and preservation.[7]
Additionally, Xel-Ha excels in habitat conservation. Xel-Ha retains 75% of its habitat through the Rescue, Reproduction and Reforestation of Native Plants Program, which started operation in 2000. The nurseries at Xel-ha helped contribute to a massive re-forestation effort by parent company Experiencias Xcaret Group, who planted more than 400,000 plants in 18 months. Nearly half the new plants were placed in public areas throughout Cancun and Riviera Maya.
Tulum is a town on the Caribbean coastline of Mexico’s Yucatán Peninsula. It’s known for its beaches and well-preserved ruins of an ancient Mayan port city. The main building is a large stone structure called El Castillo (castle), perched on a rocky cliff above the white sand beach and turquoise sea. Near the ruins is the Parque Nacional Tulum, a coastal area with mangroves and cenotes (natural limestone sinkholes).
I do not represent Xel-Ha or associated companies in any way and was a paying visitor to obtain this footage. Please leave me comments as I would love to hear from you !
The Pit Cavern Dive, Tulum Q Roo Mexico 2014
The experience starts when you enter the jungle, on a dusty road from the 307, we arrive at the Cenote The Pit. An amazing view from outside of the cenote, the water color, crystal blue, in contrast with the green of the jungle makes you feel you are in other world. At the beginning it looks like a magical spot, no wonder why it was a sacred spot for the Mayan Civilization. Entering the Cenote by a big step from a couple of meter, pumps up the adrenaline into your body. Once inside, you will encounter a huge cloud of phosphate turning the scuba diving experience into skydiving. The best part is looking at the sunlight entering the cavern in such a way that you would be amazed by it.

Akumal in the Mayan language means Land of turtles and it is still one of the favorite places for these marine animals to spawn. Akumal is one of the most peaceful places in the Riviera Maya: one protected shallow bay with a secluded beach and a nearby reef.

Scuba Diving - Lagoona - Tulum, Mexico
Me and the lads diving in the Lagoona just outside of Tulum.
At 30m sits a Hydrogen Sulpide cloud that is 5m thick. Due to the density no light can penetrate, creating underwater night and day in the same dive. Above lies a mountain-like landscape.

Beautiful Diving / Snorkeling Tulum, Maya Riviera (Caleta Tankah) Caribbean Sea, Mexico
Freediving Exploration and Videography of beautiful underwater locations, culture and life. Freediviing Caleta Tankah in Tulum, Maya Riviera, Caribbean Sea Mexico.
This is a beautiful beach located 3.5 kilometers north of Tulum. If you are coming from the south on Federal Highway 307, the beach is located between Tankah Tres and Tulum, on the left side of the highway after the pyramid is turned left. Look for the sign Caleta Tankah on the left. A private road goes to the beach where there are some buildings near the inlet and an underground river emerges from the depths of the earth to join the sea.
Tulum is a town on the Caribbean coastline of Mexico’s Yucatán Peninsula. It’s known for its beaches and well-preserved ruins of an ancient Mayan port city. The main building is a large stone structure called El Castillo (castle), perched on a rocky cliff above the white sand beach and turquoise sea. Near the ruins is the Parque Nacional Tulum, a coastal area with mangroves and cenotes (natural limestone sinkholes).
The Riviera Maya is completely within the state of Quintana Roo on the Yucatán Peninsula of Mexico. The terrain is flat and covered by low tropical jungle. The geology is high purity carbonates down to a depth of 0.5 - 1.5 km below the surface. Mean annual rainfall is 1.5 m per year and the efficient infiltration results in the complete absence of any surface rivers. As is common in karst, underground river networks have formed by dissolution, and these have been explored and mapped by cave diving through sinkhole collapses, locally called cenotes. The whole of the Yucatán Peninsula is underlain by a density-stratified coastal aquifer system with a lens-shaped freshwater body floating on top of intruding saline water. The formation of caves (speleogenesis) within this coastal carbonate aquifer is principally associated with carbonate dissolution at the fresh-saline water contact within the aquifer. By 2008, the Quintana Roo Speleological Society (QRSS) reported more than 700 kilometres (430 mi) of flooded cave passages within the limits of the Riviera Maya including the two longest underwater cave systems in the world of Sac Actun and Ox Bel Ha. These groundwater resources, accessed via the thousands of cenotes throughout the landscape, once supported the Maya civilizations and today remain the only natural sources of potable water in the area.
The Caribbean coastline is a series of crescent shaped white sand beaches interrupted every 1 – 10 km by rocky headlands and inlets, called caletas, through which groundwater discharges into the coastal water. Large sections of the extensive mangrove swamps that lie behind the beaches and headlands are included in the areas scheduled for tourism development.

Swimming with Endangered Green Sea Turtles at Akumal Beach Mexico
Swimming with Endangered Green Sea Turtles in the wild… for many of us would be a dream come true.
When I heard we could swim with Green Sea Turtles, right off Akumal Beach in Mexico - I was ecstatic. I had dreamt about it for years, so I didn’t waste any time getting there.
Best of all there was no long boat ride in the hot Mexico sun. Just rock up to Akumal Beach, jump in, and you’re in Green Sea Turtle Paradise.
