One of the best venues for weddings in Mexico is a natural well. Perhaps you are thinking… What is a natural well? It is a type of deep and flooded cavern that is not completely covered and that receives light from outside. For the Mayan culture, the natural wells were considered sacred places. 

Nowadays, they are very popular with tourists and are ideal for bathing in and for splashing about and doing snorkelling since the water is completely transparent, and when underwater, you will find a system of underground tunnels where it is possible to scuba dive, but it is also very popular with couples that want to get married.

There are an infinite number of incredible natural wells, like the Natural well of Dos Ojos, Ik Kil, Natural Well Azul, Chac Mool, El Gran Cenote… Did you know that on the Yucatán Peninsula alone there are 6000 natural wells?
