The Exploration Story
Many of the caves documented on this site were explored during efforts to better understand the underground landscape of Cozumel.
The story of these exploration dives and the effort to connect cave systems beneath the jungle is described in Rob Neto’s book Beneath the Jungle of Cozumel.
