Description
Sra Phra Nang is a cenote about 60 m in diameter which is apparently connected underwater to the sea. There is a single walking passage off from one end of the cenote. 50 m from the entrance, up a climb on the left, is an area with some nice gours and red flowstone. Further in along the main passage there is a series of large, dry chambers 30 m high and 50 m across. The cave continues beyond these chambers.
