A little more about cenotes

The word “cenote” comes from the Mayan language “ts’ono’ot” or “d’zonot” which means “water hole“.

Cenotes are natural wells, filled with fresh water and sometimes a lower layer of seawater. The Yucatán peninsula is estimated to have no less than 10,000…only a minority of which have been explored.

They communicate with each other through a complex system of underground rivers.

Their beauty, shape and depth vary from one cenote to another. The stalactics and stalagmites formations found inside takes you back millions of years, adding to that the play of light that takes you to another dimension…the magic of cenotes works.
