This site is especially interesting because it is **located on a cliff overlooking the Caribbean Sea**; that means you can walk through the site, learn a little more about the history of the Mayan civilization, and then swim in the beautiful waters of the Caribbean Sea.     ### **2. Dive into a cenote** ![Tulum-Ecoturismo-02](https://blog.happyaddress.mx/hs-fs/hubfs/Tulum-Ecoturismo-02.jpg?width=1200&height=700&name=Tulum-Ecoturismo-02.jpg) Cenotes are **natural swimming pools** formed in the Yucatan Peninsula due to the erosion of limestone. These pools are filled with crystal-clear freshwater and are perfect for swimming and snorkeling. Tulum has some of the most beautiful cenotes in the region, such as the **Dos Ojos Cenote and the Gran Cenote**. Remember that, if you want to swim in a cenote, the best thing you can do to respect the environment is wearing biodegradable sunscreen. You can also look into specialized tours in case you want to practice scuba diving.     ### **3. The Sian Ka'an Biosphere Reserve** ![Tulum-Ecoturismo-03](https://blog.happyaddress.mx/hs-fs/hubfs/Tulum-Ecoturismo-03.jpg?width=1200&height=700&name=Tulum-Ecoturismo-03.jpg) The Sian Ka'an Biosphere Reserve is one of the most important natural areas in Mexico. It is a vast 650,000-hectare reserve that includes **jungle, mangroves, swamps, and beaches**. It is home to a wide variety of animal and plant species, some of them endangered. As a responsible tourist you can **hike in the jungle, boat** in freshwater canals, and go birdwatching.     ### **4.
