In
areas with limestone bedrock, occasionally a deep sinkhole appears to
expose the groundwater beneath. This occurrence is often found in
Mexico, specifically in the Yucatan Peninsula. Underground river
systems flow beneath the entire area and formed massive cave systems.
Some of these collapsed, leaving exposed access points in the form of
sinkholes, or “cenotes”
Like
the iceberg, what lies beneath can be even more impressive than
merely locating a source of water. Cenotes serve to connect surface
water to large underground pools; some small and sheltered by an
overhang or cave; others are many feet in diameter such as those at
Chichen Itza. The big ones attract cave divers from around the world
to explore and measure the large cave systems that lie flooded
underground. Divers with underwater lights and cameras have explored
some of these systems for dozens of miles.

Imagine
swimming in a sub-aquatic cavern with crystal clear water 140 feet
deep beneath you. Stalactite and Stalagmite formations can be seen,
and with a swimming mask and fins you can marvel at the excellent
visibility of the water. Eyeless black fish swim by while hanging
vines frame a small waterfall nearby. After exploring the nearby
ruins, what could be better than a swim in such a mystical setting?
Local guides can show you the best cenotes in their area while
pointing out the tropical flora and fauna living nearby. Cenotes are
yet another marvel from the past to discover and enjoy today.
