Dos Ojos (from Spanish meaning "Two Eyes"; officially Sistema Dos Ojos) is a flooded cave system located north of Tulum, on the Caribbean coast of the Yucatán Peninsula, in the state of QuintanaRoo, Mexico. The exploration of Dos Ojos began in 1987 and still continues. The surveyed extent of the cave system is 81.9 kilometres / 50.9 miles[1] and there are 28 known sinkhole entrances, which arelocally called cenotes.
Dos Ojos lies broadly parallel to and north of the Sac Actun cave system. Dos Ojos has remained in the top ten, if not the top three longest underwater cave systems in the worldsince its discovery in the late 1980s.[2] Dos Ojos contains the deepest known cave passage in Quintana Roo with 119.1 metres (391 ft) of depth located at "The Pit" discovered in 1996 by caveexplorers who came all the way from the main entrance some 1,500 metres (4,900 ft) away. The deep passages include the "Wakulla Room", the "Beyond Main Base (BMB) passage", "Jill's room" and "The NextGeneration passage".
Dos Ojos is an anchialine cave system with connections to naturally intruding marine water and tidal influence in the cenotes. The coastal discharge point(s) of this cave system havenot yet been humanly explored through to the ocean, although large volumes of groundwater were demonstrated bydye tracing to flow towards Caleta Xel-Ha, a nearby coastal bedrock lagoon.[3]
The name DosOjos refers to two neighbouring cenotes which connect into a very large cavern zone shared between the two. These two cenotes appear like two large eyes into the underground. The original cave divingexploration of the whole cave system began through these cenotes. The Dos Ojos underwater cave system was featured in a 2002 IMAX film, Journey Into Amazing Caves and the 2006 BBC/Discovery Channelseries Planet Earth. Parts of the Hollywood 2005 movie The Cave were filmed in the Dos Ojos cave system.
