Extensive cavern system with palace-like decorated passages
Cenote Tajmaha (also spelled Taj Mahal) is named for its stunning formations reminiscent of the famous palace. This extensive cavern system near Puerto Aventuras offers decorated passages filled with stalactites and stalagmites that create an underground palace unlike anything else in the Riviera Maya.
Diving Tajmaha feels like exploring a flooded cathedral — massive columns rise from the floor while delicate formations line every passage. The cenote connects to a vast cave system, but the cavern zone accessible to recreational divers is incredibly impressive on its own, with multiple routes that make every dive a new experience.
Accessible to Open Water certified divers with good buoyancy skills, Tajmaha is perfect for divers ready to step beyond basic cenotes. Combined with nearby Jardín del Edén or Cristalino, it makes an exceptional two-cenote day trip.
