Underwater River: Cenote Angelita
Cenote Angelita is an advanced scuba diving cenote (water-filled cave) that has contains a hidden underwater river!
A pit is formed when the limestone bedrock collapses and sinks. It is then filled with a fresh groundwater and saltwater. When organic matter falls into the limestone reservoir and then decomposes, it creates halocline (a thin cloud of hydrogen sulphide) that causes freshwater and saltwater to seperate.
I was born in Mexico and I have had the pleasure to swim in several cenotes.
This time last year I had the pleasure to swim in the Cenote Ik Kil, in Chichen Itza in Mexico's Yucatan. A cenote swim is a wonderful natural experience, and Cenote Angelita looks absolutely amazing.
