A twin-cenote system connected to Sac Actun — the world's longest underwater cave network. The open cavern is accessible to snorkellers; the cave system requires a guided dive. Among the most extraordinary natural environments in Mexico, and the finest introduction to cenote diving on the Yucatan Peninsula.
Why It’s Worth Your Time
Dos Ojos (Two Eyes) takes its name from its two primary cenotes — the Blue Eye (brilliant turquoise open water perfect for snorkeling and swimming) and the Black Eye (a pitch-dark cave requiring flashlights and a guide for diving). These cenotes are part of the Sac Actun cave system — the longest underwater cave system in the world at over 215 miles mapped. The clarity of the water is almost surreal. Bring your own snorkel gear or rent on-site.
What Stands Out
- Part of Sac Actun — world's longest underwater cave system
- Blue Eye — crystal turquoise water that is extraordinary for snorkeling
- Black Eye — cave diving with guides
- Water clarity rivals anywhere in the world
- Arrive early — crowds build significantly by 10am
