5th Anniversary Cruise: Day 5

Our last day in port was at Cozumel! Although, we spent only a few minutes on the island. Instead, we made our way over to mainland Mexico to explore the cenotes!

This part of Mexico has the second largest underground river in the world. Cenotes are basically the sinkholes where the river eroded the limestone away and you can access the underground caves made by the river. Mayans believed that these were entrances to the underworld and there has been extensive exploration of these caves to see if the different systems actually connect to each other!

Our exploration starts here!
