Train from cavern basics to full cave diver across the Yucatán’s famous cenotes. This multi-day TDI package combines classroom theory, confined-water skills and progressive cave dives under professional instruction.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You surface into green light and the cenote exhales cool air across your mask—the limestone roof above punctured by shafts of sun that seem to push the water into motion. In the Yucatán, caverns and underwater passages curve away like veins, and this course package puts you inside that hidden network, training divers from sidemount basics through full cave exploration.

Duration
10–14 days
Fitness Level
Good cardiovascular fitness and comfort with confined spaces; expect repetitive dives, equipment handling and moderate hauling.
Wildlife
History
Many cenotes were ritual sites for the Maya and later became mapped as freshwater sources and passageways during colonial and modern exploration.
Conservation
Cenotes are chemically sensitive—avoid lotions, secure gear to prevent loss, and follow guide rules to minimize silt and pollution.

Bring personal masks and regulators
Even when equipment is provided, having your own well-fitted mask and primary regulator improves comfort and reduces fit issues during tight passages.
Respect no-fly windows
Wait at least 18–24 hours after your last dive before flying; decompression risk increases with back-to-back dives and course profiles.
Practice buoyancy beforehand
Solid neutral buoyancy reduces silt disturbance in cave environments—spend time refining trim in open-water sessions before cave drills.
Use biodegradable sunscreen or avoid it
Sunscreen washes into cenotes; wear a long-sleeve swim shirt and rinse before entering to protect fragile aquatic systems.
Personal mask (low-volume)
A well-fitting mask improves visibility and comfort in over- and underhangs.
Primary regulator and spare octopus
Reliable breathing gear is critical for long and technical dives; bring a familiar regulator set.
Dive computer with PPO2/decompression features
Tracks bottom time, decompression obligations and multiple-gas profiles during training dives.
Sidemount harness or adjustable BCD
Useful for sidemount courses and tighter passage work; schools often provide rental alternatives.
