Dimi Scuba Diving Cozumel

Diving
in Yucatan Cenotes
The
cenotes are waterholes lost in the middle of the forest. At the surface there
is fresh water but deeper there is salt water and in between is an unclear
area where the waters are combining.
Underground
rivers which are sometimes kilometres long, leave from these cenotes. These
dives consist of discovering the entrance of the cenotes. We use the caving
technique (double tanks, reels, 2 regulators, 3 lights...).
Anyone
without a certificate for cave diving will not get away from the
entrance of the cenotes and they will always see the daylight. These dives
are organized by our specialized cavern instructors and are totally safe.
Required
level: you need the open water certificate or the level one. A basic certificate
may be sufficient if the diver is experienced and can control his buoyancy.
The
journey: you leave Cozumel by boat and you arrive in Playa del Carmen where
you take a minibus or a car. Once you are in the jungle, you get the equipment
prepared and go to the cenotes.
The
diving: the water is colder than in the sea so you need to use a diving suit
(you can rent one). The tanks and weight belts are provided by the scuba diving
centre. You will need a light. This is a one day trip, you will do two different
dives and the maximum depth is 70 feet (20 metres).
"Fabulous, magnificent,
you mustn't miss this" !!!...
