Anyone been to Akumal or Tulum lately? Have not been down there for a year and a half - looking for a general taste of what is going on and the conditions in the caves. I heard about Kalimba being ruined, what else? Thanks

I was there in December 2007 and Kalimba is fine once inside the system, it's just the dry cavern that's been destroyed.

I just booked Akumal again for January 2009!

I was there in May and June. I don't know Kalimba, but we dove most of the usually accessed caves, and had a wonderful time.

I was with them and uploaded of few pictures. It was the best cave diving I have ever experienced. I can't wait to go back.

Well, in the last two weeks I dove: The Pit twice, Minotauro, Xunaan Ha, Car Wash Down Stream, Mayan Blue and Naharon. All were wonderful dives, the water is clear, it is hot as hell and the mosquitoes are out. Other than that there is little to report.

If you want to know where we are diving day to day check out A cave diving blog. There is no Kalimba style nonsense going on that I am aware of, no heavy equipment falling into the caves or the like.

Cenote Aktun Koh is not open due to a land dispute as of 5/08. I hope it opens soon it is really cool !

Calimba zero viz for the firts 13 feet hold the line, descend and it clears up. Reverse drill to come up. The line is on the rock to the left of the cenote.

In May 08 carwash was silted down stream from a landowner's attampt to put in a "swimming cenote" The rainey season should flush it out some.

Happy cave diving.

I was in car wash down stream about a week ago and the water was clear except for the silting we created.
