Nim Li Punit and Blue Creek

Blue Creek Cave

Known in the local Maya dilect as “Hokeb Ha” (“Where the Water Enters the Earth”), the Blue Creek Cave is a great experience for adventurers of all ages. After a short hike, take a dip in the rushing waters leaving the Blue Creek Cave. There is a calmer pool of water at the entrance where you can swim. Our guides will then take you into the cave to explore and learn about the various cave formations.

​

Nim Li Punit or “Big Hat,” is known for its many stelae, or carved stone monuments. The name itself comes from a stela that depicts a king wearing a massive headdress. Many of the carvings appear to be unfinished, suggesting a sudden and mysterious halt in the artist’s work. This site features several step pyramids, a ball court, and ominous tombs.
