CENOTE THREE EIGHTS HOMÚN
There is a large parking lot and a rustic palapa where they charge you the entrance. The cenote is not discernible until you approach the entrance, where a ladder helps you descend. When you see it, you will want to go down to bathe.
The descent down the stairs to the Tres Oches cenote is somewhat complicated. It is only 6 meters to the crystal clear water. These conditions one must take into account when visiting cenotes, they are basic. I do not recommend it to those who do not know how to swim because they will not feel safe in this cenote. You can enter with a vest that you rent at the entrance.
