Cross the highway at the pedestrian crossing and continue straight onto the road leading to the Blue Hole. Follow this road for approximately 3 km, where you'll see signs for the Inland Blue Hole. The path may have some inclines and steps, so wear comfortable shoes. Once you reach the entrance, you will need to pay a small fee to access the swimming area.

• Bicycle

  Rent a bicycle from one of the local shops in San Ignacio. Start from the main square and cycle south on Burns Avenue, merging onto the road leading to the Western Highway. After crossing the highway, continue on the road towards the Inland Blue Hole for about 3 km. The ride is fairly straightforward, but be cautious of vehicular traffic. Look out for the signs indicating the Inland Blue Hole, and park your bicycle at the entrance before walking down to the swimming area.
