Dudú Lagoon
About This Museum
Well, if you know the history around here, you'll know that Dudú Lagoon wasn't always the attraction it is today. For generations, it was a local secret, a hidden cenote of impossibly clear turquoise water where families would cool off from the Caribbean heat. The water is so clear you can see the little fish darting about and the mysterious underwater caves that have given rise to so many stories. These days, the thrill of the zip line buzzing overhead adds a modern energy to this ancient, tranquil place.
Collection Highlights
The main 'exhibit' is the lagoon itself—a stunning natural pool fed by underground springs. Don't miss the chance to swim through the short underwater tunnel that connects two parts of the cenote; it's a rite of passage for visitors. And of course, everyone ends up watching the brave souls on the zip line as they shriek and splash down into the cool water from a breathtaking height.
Visitor Information
It's right off Carretera #5 in Cabrera—you can't miss the signs. Bring your swimsuit, a towel, and some cash for the entrance fee; it's a very casual, bring-your-own-snacks kind of spot. Go on a weekday if you can for a quieter experience, as it can get lively with local families on weekends.
Architecture & Building
There's no grand building to speak of—the magic is all in the natural architecture. You've got those dramatic limestone cliffs covered in lush greenery rising straight up from the water's edge, creating a perfect, secluded bowl. The facilities are simple and rustic, built to let the stunning landscape take center stage.
