Hokeb Ha Cave Vacation Guide
Hokeb Ha Cave near Blue Creek in the Toledo District can be found upstream from the Blue Creek Rainforest Preserve research station. Many Late Classic Maya ceramics have been found inside the cave, as well as an altar, and archaeologists believe the cave was used specifically for ceremonial purposes.
The Cave's large entrance has been carved from the side of a hill where the Blue Creek emerges, having started life as the Rio Blanco river before heading underground to form the enormous caving network through the limestone hills between the Rio Blanco National Park and Blue Creek.
The limestone caves are full of pristine crystal-clear mineral pools and lagoons, with a water temperature of a constant 75 degrees. Cave swimming trips are a popular activity but, for safety, you must be accompanied by a guide (local guides can be hired in the village or at the Research Station). With life jackets and headlights you swim into the cave to visit one or more waterfalls, and view the impressive stalactites and stalagmites.
