Cenote Angelita, Natural sinkhole in Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico.
The submerged cave system extends to a depth of 60 meters, featuring distinct layers of fresh water and salt water separated by hydrogen sulfide.
The formation of Cenote Angelita occurred through natural limestone erosion processes over thousands of years, creating this deep vertical shaft in the bedrock.
Ancient Maya communities utilized cenotes throughout the Yucatan Peninsula as sacred water sources and locations for ceremonial offerings to their deities.
Access to Cenote Angelita requires certified diving experience with a minimum of 20 previous dives and proper technical diving equipment.
The underwater environment contains a natural phenomenon where decomposed organic matter creates an appearance of a flowing river at 30 meters depth.
