About this audio guide
This guide to Cenote Chaak Tun, just outside Playa del Carmen, starts with a local guide's plain advice about the rocky ground and follows the rain that seeps through the limestone overhead. It reaches back to the last ice age, when the sea around the Yucatán sat far lower than it does today. Listen for the bats along the ceiling, and stand where the shaft of sunlight falls through the roof of the main cave.
