Tulum

Dos Ojos Cenote Diving

Dive Dos Ojos near Tulum, the most famous cavern dive in Mexico: two entrances connected by decorated passages, crystal-clear water and light rays at about 10 meters. Perfect for Open Water divers, with The Dive Machine’s certified guides.

The Two Eyes of the Sac Actun System

Dos Ojos means two eyes, after the two cenote entrances connected by decorated passages full of stalactites and stalagmites. It is part of Sac Actun, the world’s longest underwater cave system, with more than 370 km of explored passages. The water is so clear that visibility can exceed 100 meters, and the famous Barbie Line route showcases some of the most incredible formations in the area. At about 10 meters deep, it is ideal for beginners and easy to navigate with a guide.
