Cenote Dos Ojos (2 dives)
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.
The cenotes are a singular point of attraction and a must-see for any diver.
Once arrived in Cenote Dos Ojos, your cavern guide will provide a thorough briefing concerning scuba-procedures, safety, cenote regulation, history and any points of interest.
According to its name, Dos Ojos is made up of two sink-type entrances and a third large main cavern linked by a long submerged corridor.
It is a favorite of divers for its incredibly clear turquoise waters, impressive geology and nature, warm temperatures throughout the year, spectacular stalactite and stalagmite formations and the possibility of doing two different dives.
In this activity you will make two different dives with a maximum depth of 10 meters and an average temperature of 24 ° C:
- 500m Barbie line
- 450m Batcave Line
These dives are a mixture of caverns, large tunnels and open areas that allow incredible games of light.
Live this magical and unforgettable experience!

Swimming with the whale sharks was worth every penny! No sunscreen so wear a swim shirt or rent a wetsuit. Our Captain Solomon was fabulous and our guide Nano was fun, energetic and did everything he could to make this a magical experience for everyone on board. We were the first pick up and last drop off which meant for a super long day but highly recommend!!

We took the whale shark watching tour; we had a fantastic day with tons of sharks. Truly a dream. I would recommend it a thousand times over.

This was an amazing excursion. The Captain knew right where to drop you in so you can swim along the whale shark. If you hesitate, you ok be behind. The captain’s mate did a wonderful job of orienting you once you jumped in the water and he took amazing photos and video. I definitely recommend Gluup for this trip.
