Cave divers in Mexico’s Yucàtan Peninsula have discovered what may be the world’s longest underground river, connecting two cave systems with a waterway of at least 95 miles.
A group of foreign divers exploring the area near the Caribbean beach resort of Playa del Carmen have yet to name the river but believe it could be connected to two other major systems, adding more than 125 miles to its length.
Prior to the discovery, the Palawan underground river in the Philippines and Vietnam’s Son Trach River vied for the record as the world’s longest.

Living Underwater continually strives to provide the best possible service to its customers, both on and off the boat. With that goal in mind, Jeremy Anschel is pleased to announce that all reservations will now be handled by a US based Reservations Office.
“I’m pleased to introduce Melissa, our US based Reservations Manager. Melissa will be the first point of contact for our divers. She will be receiving their reservations requests and taking care of deposits, paperwork and any questions our customers may have before arriving in Cozumel,” said Anschel.
Melissa added, “I’ve been diving with Jeremy on my trips to Cozumel over the past few years. In addition to my sales management experience, I’m also bringing my first hand insight as a repeat Living Underwater diver and Cozumel visitor to this position.”
When customers complete the online Reservation Request form or Contact form, they can expect a reply within 24hrs. Procedures in Cozumel remain the same. On their day of arrival, divers should contact Jeremy and arrange a time for him to meet with them at their hotel or accommodations. Jeremy will come and collect all gear and discuss plans for the next day’s diving.
Living Underwater would like to thank Ben Davison and Undercurrent for their coverage of Cozumel’s post-Wilma recovery.
