Stay Close to Your Guide
Cenote cave diving requires following the guide closely and staying near the guideline for safety and navigation in low visibility.
Bring a Good Dive Light
Even shallow caves have dark sections; a reliable scuba lamp is essential to fully appreciate the rock formations and maintain orientation.
Hydrate Before the Dive
Freshwater cenotes can dehydrate you faster underwater, so drink plenty of water beforehand and take advantage of drinks provided post-dive.
Wear a Shorty or Wetsuit
Water temperatures average around 24°C (75°F); a wetsuit helps maintain body heat during the multi-dive day.
Mask and Fins
Well-fitting mask and fins improve comfort and efficiency underwater.
