Cenote Angelita
Level 3 - Advanced: CREER cenote level (guided cavern diving) [1] [2] [6] (Deep and fragile; guided divers must stay above the hydrogen sulphide cloud and within 30 m.). 以下分类采用该认证体系自身的命名方式，用于描述该潜点所需的培训级别。
A deep circular sinkhole south of Tulum, about 59 m deep, famous for the hydrogen sulphide 'cloud' that lies over salt water at around 30 m; CREER rates it Level 3 (Advanced) and bars guided divers from going below the cloud.
Angelita is a vertical, roughly circular cenote reached by a short walk through the forest. Its upper part holds clear fresh water. At around 30 m a layer of hydrogen sulphide, a cloudy band formed where organic debris decays at the boundary between fresh and salt water, hides the bottom, and the trunks and branches of fallen trees rise through it.
QRSS lists Angelita among the deep underwater caves of Quintana Roo at 59.4 m, based on a 1993 survey; it is essentially a pit rather than a horizontal cave. CREER rates it Level 3 (Advanced) for guided cavern diving and reminded guides in 2024 that the maximum depth for guided cenote dives is 30 m and that divers must not descend below the cloud.
Operators also run technical dives here. Their published depth descriptions vary, so this page gives only the survey depth.
环境
Open sinkhole with a sharp fresh-salt boundary and a hydrogen sulphide layer; little horizontal passage.
环境条件
Typical conditions only: hydrogen sulphide layer and halocline at roughly 30 m according to operators; light and visibility vary with time of day and weather.
