About this dive site
Skull-adorned sinkhole jumps and cavern routes near Tulum.
Calavera (Temple of Doom) is a small cenote known for ladder entries, skull decorations and tight cavern lines for trained divers. Buoyancy and fin control matter to protect silt and fragile formations. Popular with experienced cavern guides between Tulum town and the reef coast.
Calavera's tight entries demand careful buoyancy; follow your guide's line and avoid unqualified penetration.
