Cenote Muyal-Ha: a trip to the underworld.

By Di Fragoso

Like if it came out of a horror story , the first 30 feet dive in cenote Muyal-Ha brings you incredible passages between mist and petrified trees from a site that seemed forgotten, lonely, hidden, colored with strange green tones and dark corners; with a sediment, that if you dare to sink your hand, transgress with the feeling that there is something on the other side ready to grab your hand and pull you into another dimension. The halocline distorts your vision for a while, but once it´s over, everything is clear again (great relief in such an alien world!).

Once this tour in the depths of Muyal-Ha ends, we are ready for the second dive (about 8 ft deep), ready for a flight by its higher ceilings of impressive caverns and caves, where the sense of the passage of time is overwhelming when you see the bones of an animal that once breathed fresh air right there, where now you depend on an oxygen tank to survive. The layers of the earth reveals a little more the guts of your world, your planet , at least what you have managed to penetrate. Its imposing stalactites go beyond what you could ask for at this time, total peace and redemption fill your mind and body…life is perfect , the universe is pure magic.

Come and dive in Muyal -Ha, Phantom Divers is the only one who can take you there!
