If you go through the free Valladolid to Cancun you will find several signs indicating detours to cenotes. You will know that we have a rather high curiosity, this time we look out over the cenote and caves Sac-Há.
In the town of X-Can you will see a detour announcing the cenote and the caves of Sac-Há, that are in the same town of X-Can. From the west exit of the road (direction Valladolid) take the detour that you will see on the road and follow the signs for a kilometer or so. It is well indicated, but ask and I am sure you respond in a friendly way.
Discover the most beautiful Cenotes in Valladolid and surroundings
X-Can, populated by cenotes and grottos
It is not the only cenote and caves in X-Can, in fact this area is full of beautiful cavities.
- CENOTE CHOOJ JA ': Without detracting from the Sac-Há cenote, just 12 kilometers from the exit of town, towards Valladolid, there is one of the most impressive cenotes I have seen, the Chooj Ja' cenote. This cenote also has caves, and the option of rappelling.
- GRUTAS SANTA RITA: A little further on, on the detour to the town of Buenavista, are the Grutas de Santa Rita, another wonderful place to visit.
- CENOTE KALOT JOOL: There is also the cenote Kalot Jool and the caves, another beauty to know. If you are adventurous, here you will find a magnificent natural space.
CENOTE AND GRUTAS SAC-HÁ (SASCAB or SA'AC HAA)
The cenote and the caves Sac-Há It is not the most impressive place you can visit, but you will be doing community tourism, and leaving money to people who have been caring for and promoting their treasures for years. That's just why I think it's worth making a stop on your way.
The Sac-Há cenote is a cave and little one You descend through comfortable and easy wooden stairs, and after descending a few meters, you find this beautiful crystal clear water. The great thing is that you will surely be alone, I am always excited to have these private pools for me: it is a luxury that makes me burst with laughter.
When I went I did not do the whole trip to the cavesThey were kind enough to show them to me, and they look very good. For those of us who like cenotes, we are usually dazzled by the bowels of the earth. In them a good part of our past is kept, and the beauties that are formed are to entertain and marvel at natural delicacies.
It was a pleasure to know this beautiful cenote, the population of X-Can has much to offer the curious traveler.

Sac-Ha is from the cenotes that looks nicer in the photographs of what is reality. It is a small hollow and the pool of water is also very small. What is certain is that it is community-based and the staff that takes care of it, at least on the day the blog author took me, is extremely kind and hospitable. It is nice that the cenote belongs to a community and not to a tourism multinational (as is happening lately). And by the way, the caves that the cenote has are not made for fat people.
My sister, thank you for your contributions.
The grottos are not made for anyone, you could fit there, but you're a big guy too.
With desire to have you again here, more stones and more cenotes for the Salvadó 🙂
Hug,
