Must do if you like water and adventure!
Rope swing is so much fun and easy for children who are good, confident swimmers. Prices are reasonable for a tourist attraction. It’s not easy to find such a fun experience and worth the money for a great memory. 25Q per person entry. Small snacks and beverages available also at tourist prices e.g. 10Q for a large bottle of water.
There is not much seating but ok for the number of people there. About 20 during the afternoon on a weekday in Feb. in the covered/shaded area there are four hammocks, a few lounge chairs, and other basic wooden chairs and different size tables for your drinks.
I took a water taxi from Flores Island though it was not easy/obvious to find. I noticed a small dock by Maple & Tocino and a docked boat with a driver hanging out. They stated the price was 50Q per person round trip. I paid half when arriving at Jorge’s and the other half after return to Flores Island.

Read moreAbsolutely come here..BUT, do not believe ANYONE who tells you its an easy and manageable hike...TAKE THE LANCHA!! We did hike...actually added this destination as our final stop after hiking San Miguel Mirador, the Archeological site, Chechenal Beach and the Museo Mundo Maya.. There is no trail.that leads to Jorge's place..we tried...we scaled up the fence along the mountainside .. we ended up inside the forest..its a nice hike..but NO JORGE! We hiked back down along the fence line and called Jorge's place who sent a lancha to the little bay to pick us up. Once here, relax on hammocks, tables and chairs, have a cold drink, eat some food..we ate pasta with meat sauce! So delicious!! The water is clean and warm .. the ropes and platform offer a more adventurous...
Read moreA little run down, but great fun and worthwhile. Water is lovely and warm. 10 minute boat ride from the eastern side of Flores. The price of the boat seems to depend on how many people are in your group. For two of us, the captain initially asked for 100GTQ per person return, but accepted 75GTQ. The 25GTQ one way I had read about online apparently only applies if you have 4+ people in your group. I asked the family at the rope swing and if you contact them on +50231963196 they can arrange a boat costing 75GTQ return for two people including entry, or 100GTQ for one person return including entry, which is a better deal than negotiating with the boats...
