Going to Akumal area - was wondering if some Cenote diving is suitable for NON cave divers. Hard to from the photos if this is suitable for divers such as my 2 boys (OW) and myself (AOW) - are they all involving true cave diving ie needing certification - or are some restricted to all fairly open natural light situations.
I have been in dive groups before where the group went beyond my comfort zone - the last thing I want is to go with my teenage sons and put them at risk. Are some of the cenotes nice and open? The spectacular photos I have seen seem to involve lengthy tunnels, and would need advanced buoyancy control - I would have to say my boys have variable buoyancy control at best. They were great in Cozumel but I don't want to push the envelope.
Advice?
