History

Description

This very large cave begins near the village of Santa Cruz, where the river rushes under ground, resurfacing five miles later near the village of Blue Creek. The cave is classified as a wet cave with dry routes. Headlights in place, life jackets on, you will hike/swim to a waterfall inside the cave. You have entered the mysterious underworld of the Maya. Enjoy the cave's colossal beauty as you float back out the cave.
