Map Previous Next Mexico dive map Mexico dive listFirst Cenote cavern dive - Irina stays behind snorkelling. Gisella enters cave & runs out a line (reels back in on return). Camera fogs, but film with GoPro. Mostly white limestone, a few fish, but no shafts of sunlight as weather clouded over :(! Mangrove roots visible above. Remarkable thermoclines & haloclines - suddenly very hot, suddenly turbid like clear semolina porridge. Difficult to clear ear - caused some nasal bleeding, but not noticed during dive.
