Cenote Taak Bi Ha

 

Taak Bi Ha which means “Hidden Route of Water” in Maya, is accessed through a small opening in the cavern roof and is amazingly lit with artificial lights. This cenote is fully underground an impressive photo spot, with the roof completely covered with stalactites and huge roots hanging down into the water.

 

Below the water is an exquisite wealth of fragile stalactites, stalagmites and many impressive columns. This dive is very shallow and often only a few meters deep, so the light from above playing on the water’s surface is beautiful to behold.

 

Excellent diving skills and perfect buoyancy control are a must on this dive due to its shallow water and the very fragile nature of the decorations. We will also go through some of the smallest sections you will experience on a cavern dive.

 

Taak Bi Ha is also great for non scuba divers. There are many areas to wander taking photos, easy snorkeling and they have even installed wifi underground.

Diving this cenote

 

This cenote is a one tank dive and is best combined with a dive in Cenote Tak Be Luum, also part of the Sac Actun system. This cenote is a very challenging dive, shallow and small surrounded by fragile formations. You must have proved good buoyancy and conduct in other caverns before being approved to enter this cenote.

 

As with most cenote tours we will meet around 8am at the dive shop to sort out scuba gear and paperwork, before heading off for our dives. Lunch is also included.

 

We suggest you bring a towel and a dry set of clothes. Keep in mind as in all cenotes sunscreen, cosmetics and insect repellent are banned due to the conservation of the site.

The History

 

Taak Bi Ha has been the site of much cinematic filming.  Used for scenes for the movie The Cave, the IMAX film Journey into Amazing Caves and the award-winning BBC program Planet Earth series, Caves.

Excellent dive outfit! Liz and Andres provided a seamless, safe, and incredible dive experience. From the moment i reached out, Liz was very responsive and knowledgeable about diving in the tulum area. She was also very accommodating to all of my requests. Andres was an amazing extra pair of hands to help with equipment but also to talk to during those pesky surface intervals. If and when i am back in Tulum, I’ll definitely be diving with Jaguar Divers!

TWO gorgeous dive days with Jaguar Liz is a fantastic dive master and guide! She is friendly and descriptive about the local environment and wildlife. We chose to dive with Liz and Jaguar Divers for 2 days, first a 2-dive boat trip out to the coast of Cozumel and a second day with 2 dives in Playa area cenotes. My husband had just finished his SCUBA open water certification and the Cozumel reef was a beautiful and exciting first day of diving for him. It was also my first drift dive, and following Liz's guidance and observing her calmness under the water helped to keep me calm as the strong current pushed us along the reef. In the cenotes her relaxed demeanor continued to be a great example to follow as we cruised quietly through the caverns. I will absolutely look up Jaguar Divers again when we return and recommend to anyone visiting along the Riviera Maya! Thank you for the great memories Liz!

Got my open water license with them, amazing experience! I did my open water diving license with Jaguar Divers and it was absolutely amazing! I started my diving license in Egypt but I didn't have time to finish it there so I decided to finish it in Mexico. I am allergic to chlorine so I could not do any pool dives and Jaguar Divers offered an option to do it in cenote which was just perfect and sooooo beautiful! Demian was very patient and nice, and it felt like I made a friend 🙂 I will be coming back to Mexico next year and cannot wait to do more dives with them and maybe even continue my certification! I definitely recommend Jaguar Divers to everyone, don't even think of any other place 🙂

Ready to book our next adventure with Jaguar Divers Just came back from a 4-day company retreat to Cancun. One of excursion options was the ocean guided two-tank scuba diving with Jaguar Divers, which we selected due to their 5.0 rating on Google and Tripadvisor. We had a group of 14 (9 non-certified and 5 certified divers) which was probably too many for Jaguar Divers to handle in one day. Liz and Nicole did an amazing job of making sure all the non-certified divers felt comfortable in the classroom and backyard pool before hitting the ocean. Looking back after the day, I was so glab both were English speaking so there was not any issues with understanding the trainings. They were so patient fitting 14 divers with gear, working with smaller groups in the pool, getting us on the dive boat and helping us set up our tanks before our first dive. We had a couple of things go wrong at the first dive: 1) my flipper fell to the ocean floor as soon as I stepped of the back boat deck and 2) two non-certified divers quit after stepping off due to thick mustache allowing water in the mask and the other couldn't equalize ear pressure after multiple attempts. Nicole was a rockstar in grabbing my flipper and then assisting with getting it secured and then did everything she could with the other two issues before the divers finally threw in the towel and went back to the boat. Once under water the experience was a highlight of my life. We all felt so calm and remembered our training because I imagine one freak out may have shortened or ended the dive for the entire group. Our group highly recommends Jaguar Divers. Thanks Liz for sparking all our enthusiasm to become certified divers and come back for another adventure with Jaguar Divers. 🤿💙

Unforgettable experience Liz and Maryama* are amazing guides to the cenotes. I loved every minute of the two days we spent with this dive shop, and I highly recommend them to anyone wanting to explore the caverns.

The best place to dive! I've always wanted to try cenote diving but have been too afraid of the darkness (and cold 🥶). Liz was very comforting and reassuring and made me feel very comfortable throughout my two dives.I highly recommend diving with Liz and her team. They're professional every step of the way and are amazing divers so I always felt like I was learning something new.
