The road that connects Puerto Morelos with Leona Vicario has several cenotes for your enjoyment. Cenote Lucero Verde is an open cenote of crystal clear waters and wonderful vegetation.
Among the many things you should not miss on your way through these Mayan lands of the Yucatan Peninsula are the cenotes. You will have many options on your trip, it is difficult to decide for one. If you live here, do not choose, go to all you can, they are to enjoy them.
Lucero Verde was a pleasant surprise on this road so prolific in cenotes, known as the Cenotes Route.
Green Lucero Cenote
The Lucero Verde cenote is open, with high walls, up to 7 meters, and surrounded by wonderful vegetation, a beautiful place. Like most open cenotes, they have the requested zip line or zip line, from where you throw yourself into the water. Try to keep your hands dry so as not to slip when sliding, I have seen some that slipped out of their hands and good ironing.
Another option is to jump into the water from two of the natural platforms: one of three meters and another, which already imposes a little, seven meters. I enjoy jumping into the water, I can't think of doing a head dive, mine is the stick 😉
The incredible crystalline waters that we normally enjoy in the cenotes have in Lucero Verde the prize of seeing the aquatic vegetation that dye it with life and color, giving the place a plus: to arrive, see it and smile, you are already in your cenote.
Puerto Morelos Cenotes
Puerto Morelos is part of what we know as Riviera Maya. Some cenotes of the route are very well conditioned thinking about the arrival of tours. He cenote Lucero Verde, like the rest of the Cenotes Route, it is suitable for tourism, with bathrooms, palapas, even temazcal have.
There are other cenotes on this route where more tourists arrive.

THE LAW OF THE GOOD CENOTERO: To avoid contaminating the delicate water of the cenotes, do not use body creams, or protectors, or repellents before entering them. Do not hang from the roots of the trees or touch the stalactites or do any other idiocy that damages the place.
ACCOMMODATION: it seems an interesting option to stay in this area of living jungle. Options like Jolie Jungle (we have stayed and treated us wonderfully), the House Cenote Popol Vuh in the cenote of this same name, the Roots of Heaven and the new and recommended Cheél Lodge Ecológico. All are great options for sleeping in the jungle, you will hardly have internet signal and you will be in a different environment than usual, to connect directly with your environment. Another option is stay in Puerto Morelos, where you find more variety and cheaper prices.

Hello Eduardo,
Very simple, from Playa take the combi or the ADO to Puerto Morelos. I leave the information: https://www.elcaminomascorto.es/como-ir-de-cancun-a-playa-del-carmen-y-tulum/
Once at the gas station bridge stop, here you get off, ask for the combis to Leona Vicario. To the driver, you tell him you are going to Lucero Verde, he tells you where to stop.
I hope you enjoy the trip.
