it's all in your head.

if you can control yourself and breathe deep, the solution is out there.



So for us adrenaline junkies, lets combine both.........scuba in an overhead environment caving deep into the cavern system floating along neutrally buoyant through that world.

all while deep in the mayan jungle. To the underwater cenote cave system called Dreams Gate. An Advanced dive for sure!

I saw a show that was on cave diving and, I think, was specifically in the cenotes down south. There was a guy that did A LOT of diving, but no cave diving. They gave him some training and took him down with the regular cave divers into the cenotes. I'm not a scuba diver, but I think the cave diving thing looks/sounds great (I do understand that it's not a regular dive). But, if I had to take off my scuba gear to wriggle through a little hole, nope, I don't think so. I think that's where I'm turning around. Again, unless this is well known, and there's folks doing it every day, then I may be convinced that it's OK.
