Wildlife
History
The Maya used cenotes as freshwater sources and ceremonial sites; Sac Actun is now significant both culturally and scientifically as a mapped underwater network.
Conservation
The cave system is fragile—operators enforce low-impact rules, and visitors should avoid touching formations, use minimal gear chemicals, and follow guide instructions to limit erosion and contamination.

Bring two lights
Primary and backup dive lights are essential for cavern passages—don’t rely on a single lamp.
Practice buoyancy
Neutral buoyancy prevents silt-outs and protects formations; do a refresher if you haven’t dove caverns recently.
Use reef-safe products
Avoid sunscreens or lotions before entering the cenote to minimize contamination of the fragile water system.
Arrive early
Morning slots mean fewer divers in the water and calmer conditions for clearer visibility.
Primary dive light
Reliable illumination is critical in cavern zones where daylight doesn't reach.
Backup light
A secondary light is mandatory for safety in overhead environments.
3mm wetsuit or shorty
Thermal protection and skin coverage for contact with rock and temperatures around 24–26°C.
summer
Fins with open heel and straps
Efficient propulsion with good control reduces silt disturbance in confined passages.
