Cavern and Cenote Diving

The Yucatan Peninsula and the Rivera Maya are a mecca for cave and cavern divers from around the world. Cenotes are the natural spring fed pools that lead to the underwater limestone formations beneath the jungle.  There are over 1500 feet of cavern to be explored in the famous Dos Ojos Cavern where you will discover beautiful ancient stalactite and stalagmite formations while never leaving the light zone.

Cenote Diving

The water in the caverns remains a constant 75F year round and a wetsuit is required in order to maintain body heat while in the caverns.  Tanks, weights, and belts are included in the cost of a cenote dive.  Dive equipment, dive light, and wetsuit are available for rent. 

Cenote dives allow certified open water divers to visit the underwater world of caverns accompanied by an Akumal Dive Adventures divemaster/instructor who is cave certified.  Although the caves are an extensive system of tunnels and underwater rooms, the cavern zone is the first initial 200 feet of the cave entrance.  Any penetration beyond the 200 feet zone is considered a "cave dive" and divers must be fully cave certified to go beyond this point.

If you are interested in a cenote dive or advanced cave certification, please drop by the shop and sign up for the next trip with Akumal Dive Adventures or visit our cave diving friends down the road at Hidden Worlds.
