Was looking for a quiet/peaceful cenote without all the zip lines, ATVs etc and this one was perfect! Recommend bringing a mask+snorkel if you have one, lots of fish and things to see underwater inside. read more

Stunning and intense cenote, one of the best. There was so much to explore, a place to jump into a sunny open part of the cenote, and many portions of the cave/cenote to swim through. There were bats living on the ceiling that were adorable and didn't bother the tourists, and there were picnic tables outside to eat your lunch in the sun before or after your visit. The main thing they did not have was a locker system. I recommend bringing a lockbox or some way to store your care keys securely so you don't have to just stash them in a bush somewhere. read more

This is a BEAUTIFUL and large cenote with, you guessed it, 7 entrances. The main cenote I believe has only 4-5 entrances, and the cenote reserved for certified scuba divers has 2-3. I can only speak to the main cenote. The grounds are well maintained. Ample seating and pavilions. Pretty free of trash. We felt safe leaving our belongings laying about at one of the pavilions while we explored the cenote, and we left with everything we came with. That being said, leave things at the pavilions at your own risk. Amazon sells big phone pouches that you can also slip your cards, IDs, keys, and cash in to bring with you in the water. I will say this cenote is super off the beaten path. It felt like it took forever to get back there in the car. After you pay the entry fee you have to take a quick shower and put on a life jacket. They don't allow you to wear sunscreen if I remember correctly. To get into the main cenote you can jump, descend some narrow, steep stairs, or descend a LONG, wide stairs down into the shallow part. If going down the long wide stairs, you come to a very shallow little area - it's a little slippery so BE CAREFUL. It's a nice entry into the cave. The water is low enough to swim with your head just above water into the cave. Once you're in there it's expensive. There's some fish, you can't see the bottom, it's well lit and there's several areas to explore. We LOVED cenote 7 bocas!! read more

This was the highlight of my trip! I have not been to any other cenotes, but saying that this one did not seem very touristy. It was not very crowded and we were able to explore the caves with barely any other people around us! Cenotes are natural waterways underground that are made from rainwater. What is so cool about this is that there were fish swimming around with us! You can swim from one cave to the other at this location. The water here is very clean too, to keep it clean they have you shower off before getting in. There is a spot where you can jump into the water from about 15 feet above. Pretty epic! Tip: Bring Pesos if you have them it is cheaper than paying in USD. Drones are allowed. read more

Looked up Cenotes wanted to go to a different one. This place was not crowded, it was nice and quiet. Cenotes are connected, 1-5 the last 2 are for scuba diving (equipment not provided). Marcos, the employee, stated that no guide required we were on our own, you can set your belongings in your car or there are picnic areas to place them on (at your own risk). Thier are bats in one of the caves just saying read more

This place is definitely off of the beaten path, but it is a hidden gem. I love visiting cenotes when in the region, and this is the best so far. That water is beautiful and inviting, and there aren't many things cooler than swimming in underground caves. read more

don't miss the exit on maps ! we missed the exit off the main road and we were navigating through very rocky road with nothing or no one in sight for a tourist kinda scary ! finally we saw ppl and asked if we were on the correct path and they guided us , but ohhh man this place is sooooo fun ! it was empty one other family , brind drinks , food, snacks , towels and have a great time with family it was sooo cool cenotes are beautiful read more

We had a great time at 7 bocas (mouths) cenote. We went on Dec 31st and the place was wonderfully quiet... Only 3 other families. The 7 mouths are the different daylight openings to the large 150 meter-deep pool of clear water. Each of the mouths have small caverns. Numbers 1-5 are interconnected by natural passageways where you can keep your head above water, easily following a rope to get to the next mouth. Mouths 6 & 7 are said to be via scuba access only. (though I was able to freedive to 6 easily). There are 3 Mouths with stairs for easy access and one round mouth where you can jump into the water, more than 20 feet below. Nice that life jackets were available, but optional. The most amazing thing to see is the sun shining down into the clear water until it becomes only a pinpoint. We had a wonderful time... The guy there was nice and very helpful. The other families were very friendly. Lots of small palapas. Price was 300 mxp for adults & 250 for Cancun residents. Getting here probably won't be easy as you would need your own car to take you about 1.5 miles down a dirt road. No 4-wheelers, zip lines or horseback rides here... this is a very natural setting. read more

Cenote 7 Bocas - View from Boca 4 to 5. - Lakes Near Me - Puerto Morelos, ROO

Great little place to experience the cenotes. My husband and I like to stay away from the mass tours when vacationing and selected 7 Bocas Cenotes because the tour buses don't go here. We were very pleased with our experience. It's an easy 40 minute drive from Cancun's Hotel Zone. The last 2km is the entrance where you'll drive on a dirt road but otherwise it's highways and paved roads. The staff was very friendly. Some spoke English better than others, and we knew enough basic Spanish to piece together a conversation. For the entrance fee, we were quoted $25 USD per person or 500 pesos per person. The facilites were very clean. The restrooms had fully operating toilets with large stalls to change your clothes. There were palapas all around with picnic tables and hammocks if you wanted to hang out and have lunch. There is no restaurant on site, so bring your own food and water. We left our belongings under a palapa, and the front desk offered to hold our car keys for us. We had no issues with theft and never felt unsafe. The cenotes were amazing. You can aces 5 of the 7 by swimming. The other 2 are reserved for divers. I loved that there was a rope to guide you through underground. The jumping hole is beautiful and you can also get there by swimming. There is also a narrow cave to swim through which I found exciting. I brought snorkel gear, and really enjoyed looking at the stalactites under the water and also saw some fish. There were only a handful of other visitors there at the same time, and it was nice to have an intimate experience. We were allowed to swim and relax on the property for as long as we wanted. read more

Just okay. There are 7 mouths but only 4 are accessible. The other are just openings that let in light and doesn't have stairs down. The 7 mouths all connect and are small. It would take you literally 20 mins to swim thru all of them. For $25 bucks a person, not worth it imo. There are showers, life vests and picnic tables on site for you to use, but I can't imagine spending the whole day here. read more

Located near the town of Puerto Morelos off the Ruta de los Cenotes, Cenote 7 Bocas is an interesting set of cenotes to explore. Boca means "mouth" in Spanish, so this is a set of seven water holes. Some are connected by an underground river. Some you can jump in from above, and numbers 5 to 7 are not accessible. The road is unpaved once you leave the Ruta de los Cenotes and is not well marked. Other trails go off to the sides. We brought a guide whose expert local knowledge was purchased with some tacos, a few bucks and some cold beers. Since he knew the cenote keepers, we had a discount from the regular price of $20 bucks or so. Everyone was happy with our loose arrangement 'cause we never would have come this way by ourselves. We'd never even heard of the Route of the Cenotes, but you can guess what it is. Cenote 7 Bocas is one of the better cenote experiences, as some cenotes around here are just glorified swimming holes. This one is an underground river and cave swimming experience. You descend by stairs into the first boca and enter a huge cavern filled with water with a wooden platform. Your eyes will adjust to the darkness to see the rock formations. The keepers provided waterproof flashlights. The water temperature was cool even on this hot day, though we did wear our own wetsuits because cenote swimming was a target activity of this trip. You enter the first boca down the stairs, then swim the underground river to another boca. There are ropes to help guide you through the darkness of the cavern. I wouldn't do this without a guide. This cenote was pretty good, but I've been in a much better underground river one twice. I'll review it if I can rediscover the name. If you plan to swim in a cenote, don't wear sunscreen or you will pollute the water. read more

What an experience! There is a tour company that you can go through to see various cenotes, but we just got in a taxi after breakfast on a whim and followed signs with arrows to cenotes. We got a taxi from Puerto Morelos for round trip and for the driver to wait up to 2 hours for 500 pesos without tip. Be prepared for nature: this is her playground for you to have fun. There are tree bats flying in the caves, but they are harmless. There are fish swimming in the water, but they quickly swim away when you get in. And watch out for the imaginary water creature that your mind will create along the way. Technically there are 7 openings, but really you can access about 4 through the openings and view 2 more from the top. The 7th one isn't viewable, but it is there. It cost 300 pesos per person. Depending on the day, time, season, you could be there with a crowd or completely have the place to yourself. We arrived on a Monday around 11:30am. My husband and I were fortunate to have the place to ourselves. We thought we wanted a cavernous experience, but soon afterwards we realized we're not immediately as adventurous as we thought. We got over some fears (e.g., heights, dark caves, water that we couldn't see the bottom of, and bats) after a long while and multiple pep talks. Super thankful we were there by ourselves to have this side growth-producing experience. Boca 3 is completely open and you can jump in! It's a bit of a jump in height. For non-risk takers like myself, it was a bit terrifying. Once I jumped, I felt empowered...and still a bit scared. Pack a lunch and you could spend an hour or two here easily. If there were crowds, you may feel a bit claustrophobic since the caves are quite small and intimate and really could comfortably handle a handful of people at a time, while the rest of the space above ground could handle a large crowd. There are plenty of seating areas, tree platforms for views from above. They offer horseback riding and ATV rentals too. If you want a more open cenote (with zip line), they exist (probably similar to a small lake/river), just look at tour brochures. It made for a wonderful, private adventure and a priceless memory. read more

Cenote 7 Bocas - Boca 3...salta! - Lakes Near Me - Puerto Morelos, ROO

It's about 2 miles down a very bumpy dirt road, but very drive-able for almost any car. On our way back we passed a family whose car had high sided on a stump when they had tried to turn around at an inopportune spot. We couldn't do anything for them, but I went back and told the employees at Cenote 7, and they very generously came right away in their truck to help the family get unstuck. It is a bit pricey for a very undeveloped tourist site, but well worth it. It's a small site, but you can spend hours here just exploring the nooks and crannies, and hanging out in the water. It's fun to do the 10 foot jump into one of them. This is not like the big cenotes where bus loads of poeple come. It's a very small operation, and you're pretty much on your own, but that makes it that much better. They said the cenote is hundreds of feet deep, and it sure looks like it when you peer down into the green-ness below. It could be dangerous if you swam under the rocks outcrops, but you don't have to, and can just follow the ropes. You can dive here too, as it is so deep. read more

For $20/person, this Cenote is NOT the one to choose! If you only have time for one Cenote, choose another!! First off, even though it says 7 Bocas, Bocas 6&7 are for scuba divers only. For our trip because the water level in Boca #2 was high, it was closed. Boca #3 has a place to jump from and is nice and open to the sky, but not especially beautiful. I was expecting to be able to swim from one Boca to the next, but that's not how it was at all. There are no lockers there either, so you need to lock stuff in your car - we had a van, so no trunk to hide things). We went on to Kin-Ha after. Totally different experience. In addition to lockers, also a full restaurant w/beer (no hard liquor). The chicken empanadas and the tacos were great. Would not really recommend the chicken flautas (more like chicken fingers and cheese flautas). If you do this as a tour package, the tour operators MAY tell you no cellphones so they can sell you the photo package. We drove there ( no parking fee) so we were allowed phones. There are two Cenotes. DO the package w/two Cenotes. Even though the Cenote at the main place is nice, the one offsite is even better ( transportation to 2nd Cenote included). 3 levels of platforms to jump from and a very LARGE Cenote to swim in. Was worth every penny! Even though we took out own pictures, we bought the picture package for $60 usd. As the photographer took great pictures. They download them to your phone right there. Had a really great time. read more

Cenotes have become more pricy that in years past, but are better maintained, with lower prices for locals than tourists - fair enough. The seven mouths are close to one another, but the underwater swim with the lovely blue light is a very special experience. Also worth the climb up to the viewing platform. Definitely worth a visit. read more

Very nice cenote. Our guide was amazing and the experience will last a lifetime. Loved the blind catfish and cave crustaceans.

Very cool cenote! It's a couple miles down a dirt road, with good signage leading the way, in the middle of the jungle. It is not very big (although it is 150 meters deep), but it has a few different chambers for swimming. We spent a bunch of extra time jumping through one of the openings into the water. The jump was probably about 4 or 5 meters high, so just high enough to challenge my young boys. This would be a good stop on the Ruta de los Cenotes, along with one or 2 others, depending on how much time you have. read more

Extremely overpriced at $25 usd a person. 2 of the "7" bocas were only for viewing from afar. I have been to a much better cenote called Gran Cenote and it was only $5 usd and much more beautiful in overall surroundings. read more
