Cenote Angelita + Shallow Cenote
Playa del Carmen
Description
The Riviera Maya has the largest underground water system in the world.
Cenotes are systems of flooded caves formed by crystalline underground rivers typical of the region. In these fresh waters, you will find a great amount of biodiversity as well as stalactites, stalagmites, marine fossils, gas clouds (sulfuric acid) and haloclines (mix of salt water with fresh water), with a visibility of more than 50 meters.
Diving in Cenote Angelita is something completely different from all the other cenotes in the region.
To enter the water at Cenote Angelita, you walk 45 meters into the jungle and once there you must go down some stairs to reach the platform that gives easy access to the water.
If you are a lover of cenotes, this has to be on your list!
This cenote located about 20 km south of Tulum has a depth of 55 meters and the diving takes place above 35 meters.
It is a unique cenote, since at 30 meters there is the cloud created by a layer of hydrogen sulfur about 3 meters thick.
It will be one of the most bizarre dives you can do in your life, as you will find it similar to a mystical underwater river decorated by fallen trees and huge branches, which together create a surreal, unique and completely otherworldly experience.
And to finish this incredible experience, you will be able to select between Cenote Manatí, Cenote Car Wash or Cenote Calavera to make a second shallow dive and continue enjoying these spectacular "Mayan pools".
The cenotes are a singular point of attraction and a must for any diver. Live this magical and unforgettable experience!

Very responsive on what’sapp and gave clear information on the tour and how to get there. The place is very pretty! The tour guide and the boat captain were friendly. We had 4 stops in our snorkel tour as planned. Visibility was not great , but it was still amazing. I hope to go back for scuba diving one day. I also liked that they keep things real: (1) do not try to sell things that may not happen (due to nature), (2) they do not put additional fees - what they tell you is what you pay (very different than other tours I have seen around Los Cabos) One point to highlight is that the boat is small, so if the ocean is rough it may not be the best for people that get sea sickness.
