Cenote Diving
Riviera Maya

​Cenote" comes from the ancient Mayan word dzonot, which roughly translates to “abyss”—basically nature’s own sinkhole of mystery. In Mayan culture, cenotes weren’t just big puddles of doom; they were sacred portals to the underworld, and possibly the original spa-day for the gods.
