Freediving in cenotes (sinkholes) in Mexico

I consider myself an "amateur" level freediving, as it is something that I am really passionate about but that I don't do very often. Some of the places where I have had the opportunity to freedive in Mexico are: Cancun, Yucatan, Riviera Maya, Chiapas, Cozumel and some others.

Besides the sea, I really enjoy the cenotes in Mexico, they are really amazing and some are very dark, there are "open", "closed" and "semi-open" cenotes馃寠. Basically, the amount of light that enters the cenote defines what type it will be, so the closed cenotes will be quite dark, so they are illuminated with artificial lights, the open cenotes receive a lot of sunlight, so you can take quite a lot of photos illuminated.

But the semi-enclosed cenotes are really incredible because rays of light enter that can be captured by the cameras, thus, it seems like a natural blue light show.

Much remains to be discovered!

Maybe the definition of the photos and videos is not the best馃槄, although now I have bought a GoPro Hero 8, so I hope to bring more content to the channel, and somehow try to connect two of my biggest passions as my training as a marine biologist and freediving.

Whether you are an amateur or very advanced freediver (as well as indayclara@indayclara馃榿) we know that there is a whole world to discover just with the help of our lungs, I will continue to share my "bit" of the world with you later!馃憢馃槃

I leave some videos here馃憞
