Cavern diving in the Yucatan Peninsula

28 February 2017 - 9 March 2017

This trip is specifically to dive in the Cenotes, which are a series of underwater caverns and caves (fresh water) which open up periodically into open bodies of water where the cave roofs have collapsed, giving beautiful lighting effects. March is the best time to go as it is sunny but less humid and seldom rains. The diving requires good buoyancy and trim as some passages are quite narrow and changes in depth are fairly frequent, so minimum Diver Grade is Sports Diver with a good number of dives logged.

We have 5 days diving in the Cenotes.

Accommodation: We will be staying at The Dive Centre in their self catering apartments, (2 people per apartment). Restaurants and shops are within walking distance.

On our non diving days, we can go on excursions which the Dive Centre can arrange for us e.g. visit The Mayan Ruins.

There is also the opportunity  to have another day of diving at the coast, but this doesn’t replace any of the 5 days in the Cenotes.

Flights: We will be flying from Gatwick direct to Cancun. (probably Virgin Atlantic)  (about 11 hours). The Dive Centre pick us up at the Airport and transfer us to their place.

Cost: including flights, diving and accommodation will be about £1600
