A cenote known to divers as the Temple of Doom, rated Level 2 (Intermediate) by CREER, with designated cave training areas; CREER noted improved water clarity in 2024 after a nearby laundry closed.
Calavera, nicknamed the Temple of Doom, appears on CREER's cenote list as a Level 2 (Intermediate) site with cavern and cave diving open. In February 2024 CREER noted that the water had become clearer since a nearby laundry closed and said it would keep monitoring the cenote and announce when the cavern line became suitable for guided dives again.
CREER's training rules allow drills only in a defined part of the cave: the area between the T-junctions at the end of the Canyons and the Madonna passage, and the Hall of Giants up to the double-arrow 'Fang' jump. Zero-visibility training is explicitly not allowed in the Madonna or Canyons passages. Calavera was also on CREER's April 2024 list of lines needing repair.
The sources consulted do not give a surveyed length, depth or the cave system Calavera belongs to.
