English (Translate this text in English): The C-53 lays outside of Balones de Chankanaab, on a sandy plain between Tormentos & Chankanaab.
The dive site is supposed to be marked by a buoy. Sometimes this is simply an overturned plastic bottle.
Best to visit by boat.
Note: It could be done as a shore dive from Chankanaab Park, but it's a long swim ;-)
