Carwash Cenote, Mexico

The Carwash Cenote is located outside of Tulum, Mexico — a collapsed sinkhole that connects two caves, with the system continuing into the depths of the Yucatan. The cenote got its name from the taxi cab drivers who came here to clean their cars, making it one of the first cave dives in the region.

I had heard that this cave was not as decorated as some others in the region, so I opted to free dive into the cavern zones instead of doing a full cave dive. I was able to get into the entrance and follow the gold line for a bit before returning to the surface. The cenote has a parking lot, a snorkel section, and a place that allows diving.
