The music I used was "fragile" a song by Sting to promote the "fragility" of this precious environment, that must be protected for generation to come (and dive).

wait... why the "ALTO" sign ?

whats beyond that point?!?

[kristiankristof]

The ALTO sign is posted at different cave entrances that require higher (cave) training and special equipment. Certain cave systems are really long, tight and complicated to navigate with strong currents...et cetera. We had done a very simple cavern dive that only required to use a qualified guide with cave equipment, allowing a max of 4 divers to follow with regular scuba gear. The safety rules in mexico are moderate, but respected by most dive operators.

Dos Ojos must be kept a secret. It's the most beautiful spont in the world. If word gets out it will be soon be destroyed by careless tourist.

the sign also says that over 300 cave divers and advance divers died going into that cave, because they got lost and the closest way out except that entrence is 1,5 km away.

[SICPUEDE]

Very true but the way this economy is going here in the U.S you guys will have nothing to offer amigo.

[taylorsantajulia]

Wait a minute... did you really see a shrimp, a blind albino cave fish AND the eel all on the same dive?!? And isn't that conch fossil actually from the Tajma Ha cenote cavern system?

I love the croc-eating-Barbie turn point, don't you?

[taylorsantajulia]

Almost positive and unavoidable death to the untrained in cave diving.

[YucaTX]

That's close to my hometown!!! I miss my beautiful Mexico...*tear*
