Specials:

  • up to year 2002, you had to register before diving. meanwhile the equipment carrying donkeys disappeared from the small path, leading 3 km into the jungle. now you will find a "road", what made the site sometimes crowded due to myriads of snorkel tourists... nostalgia?
  • even if you find 5 m depth - some jumps are insidious - just in a 0.5 m distance
  • beautiful cavern zone, cave starts 10 min after entrance
  • the connection to Dos Ojos was still not found. Swim to pet cemetary and search... ;-)) Do not really attempt to do so...
