The Sacred Waters in Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico
It is said that in these underwater caverns from the Riviera Maya took place many ceremonies and initiations in the ancient times, when the Maya people believed in the spirits of the waters. The Mexicans call them cenotes and there are caves and underground rivers created naturally over 6,500 years ago, resulted from the combination of various geological events and climate changes. What we can see now is an incredible and unique ecosystem with crystal clear water, stalagmites and stalactites.
Some information for the divers:
- you need an open water certificate
- only dive in very small groups of 4 per guide 
- the diver should look straight ahead, swimming horizontally and moving the ankles only in a casual, alternating style, bending the knees and holding firmly in place
- these caves have more than 300 miles of interconnected passageways
- penetration: max. 200 feet (60m) from opening
- depth max. 70 feet (21m)
- minimum visibility of 40 feet (12.5 m)
Here you will find more particularities of the cenote, as well as information concerning reservations and costs.
Makes you wanna start practicing scuba diving… Well, the underwater caves there are great, but what about the underwater villages that you can find in Romania once a year in some parts of the country? They should become a place for turists to visit during the anual flods…
