Info for Cave divers Cenote Dos Ojos Grand Cenote The first immersion takes approximately 45 minutes at an average of 35ft depth. Extremely crystalline fresh water gives the sensation of flying among the formations such as stalactites, stalagmites and columns. Always within the natural light and never enters narrow tunnels (restrictions) reserved alone to the cavedivers. In general, a dive in a cenote is different than dive in the sea which is why the tour turns out to be very educational. There is no other place in the world where to do this activity. It is a unique experience. The caverns and tunnels that are visited they are quite spacious and illuminated, and the flora and fauna of the place is very interesting. Before the second dive, a light lunch and beverages are served during which a review- synthesis of the previous dive is done (“debriefing”). The Second dive is generally similar to the first dive. It can be another route inside the same cenote or may include in a totally different cenote. The divers will arrive back at their respective hotels with their log books signed and sealed between the 2:30 and 3:30PM.
