Its name comes from having two large circular cenotes of approximately 70 meters in diameter, connected by a 400-meter-long passage with a central cavern. It is part of the second largest cave system in the world.

To reach the cenote, you have to walk a trail of approximately 4 km, where you can enjoy the incredible flora and fauna of the region. Both "eyes" have hard wood covers to facilitate entry into the water. The right one is larger and better suited for swimming and snorkeling, while the left one is better for divers.

It is considered one of the most beautiful cenotes due to its incredible turquoise tones, and the surface holes allow sunlight to create an amazing play of lights and colors. Additionally, it is home to a wide variety of marine life.

In the depths, there are interesting rock formations, as well as fossils of fish, snails, seashells, and corals embedded in some rocks.

The dives are shallow, no more than 10 meters deep, allowing for multiple dives during the day. The clear water offers unlimited visibility. The temperature ranges from 26 to 28°C.

One of the places to explore is the Bat Cave, which has electric lighting but is not always turned on. This place is the habitat of hundreds of bats, which hang from the stalactites or fly around, paying little attention to visitors.

There is a park that offers bathrooms, showers, changing rooms, lockers, picnic areas, hammocks, snorkeling and diving tours, massages in the middle of a paradise-like natural environment, and a restaurant.
