The Yuctan peninsula is one of the more popular worldwide destinations for professional and amateur cave divers. Cave diving is also called "cenote diving" and there are many reputable dive instructors that are for hire in the Cancun area. Many of the cenotes are accessed only through small and medium sized holes in the middle of the jungle. These cenotes are actually underground rivers with flow patterns and many, many unexplored segments and tunnels. Be advised that cave diving is not for the faint of heart or those that are not sufficiently familiar with scuba diving. As a cenote diver you are underground in caves and if something goes wrong such as you getting lost the results are more serious than if you were in the ocean where you could just swim to the surface, in an underground cave that is rarely an option. This is not to say that such serious results are commonplace, the truth is far from it, but that is no excuse to give it less importance then the situation deserves.
