May 20

It’s time again for my annual pilgramage to the centoes of Mexico to do a little cave diving. The group will be heading down for a week of underwater exploring in the freshwater caves in Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula.

It’s going to be great and I plan on shooting still photographs again this year, same as last year.

Here is out proposed itinerary:

Day 1: Warm up dives at Sac Actun. Spend the day there. Do two different stage dives: 1) Box Chen up and back 2) Boca Restriction down and back.

Day 2: Naharon morning. Set-up for Jailhouse Naharon traverse. Mayan Blue afternoon. Lot’s of two team possibilities including B to E to A and A to B to E to B. Could instead do downstream Mayan Blue to Cenote of the Sun and back on a stage.

Day 3: Traverse from Jailhouse to Naharon. 3.5 hour dive.

Day 4: Stage dive in Chan Hol in the morning. Prettier the further back you go. Really good video. Dos Palmas downstream in the afternoon.

Day 5: Spend the day at Tux. Sloth Bones. Fire pit. Gamaphor bones and upstream stage dives all possible.

Day 6: Spend the day at Minotauro. Maybe split into two teams and alternate upstream and downstream. Could also split up in afternoon to get shots of Chinese Garden at Taj for example.
