Many people like to escape from the frozen winter of their home towns in order to spend a much milder winter in Yucatán, and participate in various sports activities during their stay. If you are one of these people, you have come to the right place!

In addition to visiting the Maya archaeological sites, snorkeling in cenotes, touring the mangroves by kayak, and exploring the caves, here are some other sports options for you. Enjoy your stay in Yucatán!
