I scuba Mayan Jungle Cenotes

Windy Heap - 17-12-2014 at 05:02 PM

These cenote dives are mentally mind blowing and quite the adrenaline rush.

It's a whole 'nother world down there diving in a Cenote freshwater cave in the million year old dark underworld of the Mayan Jungle in this secret cave.

I swore to secrecy it's location, I had to earn my right to dive this site. I've dove about 9 of the sites in the Mayan Akumel / Tulum area.

This one is stellar stunning in person with chandeliers of 10-15 million year old stone formations, once dry caves, but now filled with unground fresh water river system that goes on for miles and miles.



Enjoy the short 4 minute other-worldly dive video, I'll take to where 99% percent of the general public never will go see in person:

I love my SOLA dive lights, (twin 600 lumens) I now have two of their 2000 lumens lights coming later this week for Fiji next spring.

Geezus, I'm going from 1200 total lumens to 4000...........that's going to be nuclear underwater welding BRIGHT.

I know we do an "extreme" sport but man you crazy to cave dive. I mean that in a friendly way, of course!

Thanks for sharing, that's pretty mind-blowing indeed.

Nice!! Hey, forget the piddly 2000 lumen jobs, get yourself one of these:

Four Sevens XM 18

You'll frighten the fish straight out of the water.... (ok, this may not actually be waterproof...)

That entrance looks just like Dos Ojos cenote. I went SCUBA diving at the reefs off the coast of Akumal, but we just snorkled many different cenotes in the area. Looks like we have been to a lot of the same ones :) I am new to SCUBA, but cave diving looks like a blast!

Dos Ojos is a great cenote.
