Believed by the Mayans to be portals to the underworld, thousands of
subterranean freshwater swimming holes can be found across the Yucatán
Peninsula. These deep limestone sinkholes, known as cenotes, formed when
caves collapsed and were flooded by the waters of an extensive system of
underground rivers.
The limestone acts as a filter, leaving the water amazingly clear and ideal for
swimming, snorkeling, and diving. Stalactites and stalagmites decorate the
thrillingly mysterious caves.
The name of the cenote shown in the photo refers to the fact that it’s one of a
pair of sinkholes found close together. While this pool is set in nearly total
darkness, sunlight floods the blue water of its mate, creating two entirely
different, yet altogether ethereal experiences.
