Cave Tubing at Nohoch che'en Cave
Maya Cave Experience
Nothing compares to floating through the underworld at Nohoch Che'en!
Launch your tube and marvel at the changing colors of the river as you enter the cave network of the Nohoch Che'en Caves until you fade into the underworld where exotic Mayan rituals were held thousands of years ago.
Be intrigued by the beauty surrounding you and witness ancient limestone formations as the river meanders in and out of the caves system.
Deeper into the Cave, say goodbye to sunlight as your headlamp is the only illumination lighting up the crystallized stalactites, stalagmites, columns, flowstone, and resident bats taking their nap.
During your adventure, you will learn about the area's topography and native flora and fauna in the tropical forest and relish in a brilliant historical discourse about the formation of the Cave and its discovery.
Though cave tubing through dark spaces might seem eerie at first, you will be amazed by how relaxing and rejuvenating it is, and almost everyone can do it - young, old, short, tall, fit, or not-so-fit.
This Adventure is subject to high water levels:
The best time to visit the Nohoch Che'en Cave tubing experience.
It's essential to know that river waters rise throughout Belize with heavy rains due to green season rains that replenish the land. The Cave will be closed to visitors when the river water levels get too high - keep that in mind so you won't be too disappointed.
