Cenote Chac Mool, ~20 minutes south of Playa del Carmen on the Cancún–Tulum corridor, is one of the easier cavern dives in the Yucatán. The system has multiple entrances (Chac Mool, Kukulcán, Little Brother) sharing connected passages. Notable for a prominent halocline at ~8–10 m that shimmers like heat haze where fresh and saltwater meet, and dramatic light beams through the entrance in mid-morning. Year-round, sheltered from weather, with crystal-clear water at 24–25 °C. Stays within recreational depths and inside the cavern (daylight) zone for guided tours. Permanent guidelines in place.
