Comments	We book 2 boat trip, 1 cenote cavern trip, and 1 cenote cave diving trip. The shop is a short walk from the boat and they haul your gear in a cart for you. The boat they use is small but comfortable, the guide was extremely knowledgeable. You back roll in, and climb a swim ladder out. Saw an octopus on the reef on our second day of diving. Plenty of turtles seen, at least one on each dive. The guide, Alessandra Figari, for our cavern and cave dives was great. She knows the caves in the area and highly recommend her. We dove Nahoch and Chac Mool. We'll use Dive Shop Mexico on our trip next summer :)
