Acerca de Cenote Carwash
Cenote Carwash es un cenote relajado al aire libre al norte de Tulum, conocido por una superficie tipo laguna, lirios acuáticos y una caverna sencilla que vuelve a abrirse a una luz intensa en el regreso. Es ideal para buceadores que buscan un perfil de cenote más tranquilo, con agua clara, espacio amplio y una mezcla de peces, tortugas y, en ocasiones, un pequeño cocodrilo. Su atractivo está en el contraste entre el área abierta y la caverna más oscura, más que en una bajada profunda o técnica.

Scuba
Easy cavern dive that starts in the garden-like open water and continues into a larger, brighter cavern with black formations.
Freedive
Calm freediving can work in the open-water garden and along buoy lines, but the cavern section should stay guided.
Snorkel
Snorkelers can use the clear open-water pool and buoy lines; the cavern passages are better left to guided divers.

Review
“This place is awesome. Probably my favorite chill-vibes cenote near Tulum. I was here with family and we had a great time. Really fantastic spot, tons of marine life and even a crocodile that makes its home in the area. We were snorkeling, shallow freediving, and hanging out, but of course this is also a big scuba spot for cave diving. Also, this isn't a party vibes cenote - Alcohol is not sold on the premises - which I thought was actually great - meaning everyone there was there to enjoy the cenote.”

“My favorite cenote in all of Quintana Roo! I went there to train freediving and had an amazing time —crystal-clear water and lots of life below the surface. I saw several schools of different fish species and even the friendly crocodile that lives in the cenote. A peaceful, beautiful spot to explore, train, or just relax with friends and family.”
