By the way, as I look at the pic of you, which way is the entrance to the cave? In other words, as a diver is reading the sign, he needs
to go to the left of the sign or the right to enter the cave?
and is it totally dark down there? Where your pic is taken, is it totally dark there too?
The one in the pic is not me. I quoted "Letsgodioving" (Mike). I added the pic of the full sign from when I was there (not sure if is the same).

I did some cavern, which is basically the earlier parts of the cave, open and with natural light, no restricted spaces, etc (like in the Rolex brochure on the previous page). That said, it still does get pretty black and claustrophobic (if you are prone to that) at points.

Signs like those are placed at the entry to the proper caves ... you face the sign and the entry behind the sign. Those entries look like black mean mouths. I don't remember if it was left or right though. It never crossed my mind to advance one extra meter. Just by looking at it, you get a very distinct feeling that you will die if you cross the line. No ifs about it. The one I remember was in fact a little bit above the sign, so you had to ascend a meter or so, cross the mouth and go in ...''

Something I would like to do if I didn't have a son and were a little bit younger, with the proper training of course.
