Xotic-Ha EcoPark is located on the jungle side of Highway 307, south of Cancun. The route to the park and cenote is well signed from the Cancun-Tulum highway; look for signs at the turn off, about 500 feet (150 meters) before the Pemex gas station in Xpu-Ha.
The adventure park is open Wednesday through Monday year-round except for Christmas and New Year’s Day. Winter brings large numbers of travelers to the Yucatan; during this time, plan to arrive early to avoid long lines. Christmas and New Year’s Day
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.
