Great activity to do with kids! Explore this gateway into the Maya underworld on a canoe, have a refreshing swim and grab a lunch or a drink at the palapa restaurant.

BARTON CREEK CAVE CANOEING (Half day tour) – The drive to the cave is very scenic, passing through a few Maya Villages along the way. Formations of stalactites and stalagmites found inside are remarkable. Evidence of use by the Maya exists on ten ledges within the first kilometer of passage. Pottery shards indicate use between the Early Classic (200 to 600 AD) to the Late Classic (600 to 900 AD) periods. The remains of at least 28 humans have been found within the cave. This tour is slow paced, educational, and fun for all ages. This archaeological site is about one hour from San Ignacio and requires about four hours from beginning to end.

Canoe into a large cave on Barton Creek, a couple of miles from Checo Hill... The cave is fascinating both for its geology and its Maya history (not forgetting the fun of traversing it by canoe, of course!). Barton Creek itself is clear, clean and refreshing - excellent spot for a swim.

This wet cave in a remote area off the Mountain Pine Ridge Road offers a canoeing adventure in Xibalba (the Mayan underworld.)
