Hi Mark,

Not a new spot but one that is not used very much.  It's called "27 steps" 
and is a small system, but I can just about guarantee you'll be alone in 
there.  Take the dirt road into the jungle opposite the main Akumal entrance 
and turn right on the road (??? - path - trek??) where the power poles cross 
the road.  About 1/8 of a mile (I think after the third or fourth pole) and 
it will be on your left.  The line runs about ten ft under the water where 
you get into the cenote.  A car or van with decent ground clearance can make 
it.

Steve Gerrard's book gives a description.  BTW I really like the book.

Good luck and safe diving,      Scott
