Sistema Dos Ojos

Contributing to the largest and most beautiful caves in Mexico, it is impossible not to mention Dos Ojos cave. Dos Ojos is part of a flooded cave system north of Tulum, on the Caribbean coast of the Yucatán Peninsula, in the state of Quintana Roo, Mexico. The discovery of Dos Ojos began in 1987 and continues. The survey range of the cave system is 82 km and there are 28 known entrances to the sinkholes, known locally as cenotes. In January 2018, a link was found between Sistema Dos Ojos and Sistema Sac Actun. The smaller Dos Ojos became part of the Sac Actun, making the Sistema Sac Actun the longest known underwater cave system in the world.

Dos Ojos lies to the north of the remains of the Sac Actun cave system. As a separate system, Dos Ojos remains in the top 10, if not the top 3, the longest underwater cave system in the world since the late 1980s. Dos Ojos contains the deepest known passageway. in a cave at Quintana Roo with a depth of 119.1 meters located in the "Pit" discovered in 1996 by caving explorers who arrived from the main entrance about 1,500 meters away. Deep passages include "The Wakulla Room", "The Walkway Outside the Main Base", "Jill's Room", and "The Next Generation Pass".

This is truly a great mysterious work of nature that people continue to admire, conquer and discover.
