Abres Los Ojos

While in Mexico, we decided to do a cenote dive (a sinkhole from the collapse of limestone bedrock that exposes groundwater underneath) as we had heard so many good things about them.

We headed off to a place called Los Dos Ojos to see what everyone was going on about. On our briefing we found out that part of the dive would be quite dark as there were areas of the cenote where no light can penetrate. At this point I was a tad nervous. Anyway once we were in the water, and had our flash lights on, it was amazing! We were diving in fresh water and it was crystal clear. We saw stalagmites growing, surfaced up into a bat cave and saw the most amazing rock formations. I would definitely do that again!

Our photos didn't turn out really well, but this will give you an idea...
