Cenote dives
For experienced divers looking for adventure, try a thrilling
dive in the crystalline waters of one the many cenotes just a short distance from
Cancun. Cenotes are also a great place for some relaxing snorkeling and swimming.
Cenotes are deep, water filled sinkholes formed by rain water percolating through
the soft limestone above. Over millions of years the water formed caves, passageways
and huge caverns which are filled with stalactites and stalagmites. The cenotes
are collapsed entrances leading to underground rivers which run through large interconnected
cave and cavern systems. The Mayans called these sinkholes "Dzonot" (sacred well),
the Spanish word is cenote.
Carey Dive Center offers a one-day trip with two dives to Chac-Mol, Dos Ojos, Grand
Cenote, Azul and Crystalino. We will pick you up at Puerto Juárez, Cancun (Ultramar
ferry station) and take you to the cenotes - equipment, snacks and drinks are included.
