I have been lucky enough to swim in cenotes in Cuba. A cenote is a natural pit, or sinkhole resulting from the collapse of limestone bedrock that exposes groundwater underneath. Especially associated with the Yucatán Peninsula of Mexico, cenotes were sometimes used by the ancient Maya for sacrificial offerings.
Look what happens when a photographer descends in to the depths of a cenote and takes some stunning photographs.
