Sistema Dos Ojos - cave diving for all levels!
Dos Ojos competes with Nohoch for the No.1 of the largest measured cave in Q.Roo. Now it counts 60,6 km surveyed guidelines. But the exploration is still not finished yet. Cenotes named Dream Gate and Rain Drop insert themselves into the total area DO and wait to be connected with the main system. We can not give details to the large number of DO's cenotes: the approaches and entrances are too different. Nevertheless some details: sorry- this information will be updated soon! 2010 changed a looot! Location: south of the waterpark "Xel Ha" of direction Chetumal, approx. 8 km before Tulum - you can`t miss it! Access:
Entrance fee : 80 Pesos The entrance “Hidden Worlds” is operated by the American Buddy Quattelbaum.
Price for a guided Caverndive apprx.60 USD.
Cave insider may dip with Buddys extra permission into " Hilarius Well" ; "Peers House", "Mundo escondido", "Tak Be Loom" oder "Tak Be Ha" and with completely much luck into “The pit”! By the way: Mr. Cenote himself, Buddy Quattelbaum, has probably explored more virgin underground terrain around here than anyone else. max. depth: 8 meter ( the pit range a bit deeper ;-) water Temp: 75 degrees F (24 celsius) restooms: yes, both entrances best dive:
DOS Ojos was the choice for the photographs and the IMAX movie “Journey into Amazing Caves” in and around the Cenotes in 1999.
