Sieto Cocos - Yucatán Cenotes
Siete Cocos in the Yucatán offers a compact cenote dive, great for those looking to experience the region's unique cave diving without venturing too deep. We usually see impressive stalactite formations here and often spot the resident catfish navigating the silty bottom. It’s a good option for newer cavern divers, providing a gentle introduction to overhead environments.
