Cenotes

Time Travelling

Cenote Diving is one of the diving options that make the Mayan Riviera stand out in the world map. Cenotes is the name given to the holes in the jungle floor that connect underground rivers to open air. Through the cenotes we get into the caverns that will offer us haloclines, light effects and geological wonders. Diving in these freshwater underground rivers is a unique experience that can be compared to no other.

The clean fresh water offers perfect visibility to appreciate the amazing geological formations that will make us travel through centuries of history. There are hundreds of different cenotes in the Mayan Riviera and they are all magical in a different way. There are deep sink holes, shallow caverns, dives with haloclines, tannic acid clouds, fossil trees and more. We get to choose from many of cenotes according to your experience, preferences and diving level.

When to dive in the Cenotes
The best time for cenote diving is between May and September. These months bring the best light to the caves and result in better photographs. Note that diving in the cenotes is possible year-round.

Water temperatures in the cenotes remain constant year-round and cool very minimally during the winter months. On average, temperatures are approximately 77ºF (24 to 25ºC).

Itinerary

Pick-up
I will pick you up with my truck at your accommodation or a pickup point we agree on.
Trip
Cenotes are all in the jungle, so we will drive there carrying all our gear and tanks.
We Dive!
We will do two dives of up to one hour each. Depending on the cenote, both dives might be starting from the same spot or we will drive from the first dive cenote to the next.
Food
In between dives we’ll have snacks and water. After finishing our two dives we will go have lunch.
Drop-off
Finally, I will drive you back to your accommodation.

The entrance fee(s) of the cenotes are NOT included in the price of the activity. You need to bring the money in cash on your own – be prepared, there’s no banks in the jungle!
