Uncovering Taak Bi Ha Cenote located between Tulum and Playa Del Carmen – The hidden gem that no one knows about….YET!

If you’re seeking an underground oasis, that’s quieter and more secluded than the hustle and bustle of Tulum’s other usual trending cenotes and hot-spots, then, Taak Bi Ha Cenote is a must-visit destination.

Table of contents

Tucked away down a long dirt road, Taak Bi Ha offers a tranquil underground paradise where you can immerse yourself in a natural wonder of Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula.

In our opinions, Taak Bi Ha is the BEST Cenote in Tulum, or I’d even go so far to say…our favorite Cenote all trip 🙌🏻

BUT I’d visit soon, I’m sure this secret will not stay quiet for long… and it will become overrun with tourists like other popular cenotes throughout Tulum and Mexico.

What you will LOVE about Cenote Taak Bi Ha

  • It’s Quiet: Taak Bi Ha Cenote, is still quite undiscovered which makes it peaceful and QUIET in comparison to many other cenotes in the Tulum area. It is located next door to Dos Ojos Cenote, yet people don’t realize its equally as beautiful, but so much quieter, and only 1km further down the road.
  • The photo opportunities! Like other Instafamous Cenotes like the Suytan Cenote, Taak Bi Ha Cenote has a runway and platform. This is PERFECT to capture incredible PHOTOS. It also has just enough natural light to make the water glow a magical turquoise.
  • Crystal Clear Waters: The cenote’s crystal-clear waters are inviting to visitors to swim and snorkel. The water is refreshing and provides a welcome respite from the heat of the Yucatan Peninsula.
  • Underwater Exploration: Dive beneath the surface to discover this cenote’s hidden wonders, from intricate rock formations to underwater caves inhabited by small fish and aquatic life.
