Cenotes of Homún
Cenotes de Homún
A small town on the “cenote ring” with more than twenty cenotes open to visitors nearby. Explore them one by one by tricycle or moto-taxi and go for a swim.
Homún lies about 10 km north of Cuzamá, on the “cenote ring” formed by the Chicxulub meteorite impact. More than twenty cenotes around the town are run by local communities and open to visitors, including Santa Bárbara, Santa Rosa and Yaxbacaltún, and they come in open, semi-cave and cave types. In town you can hire a tricycle or moto-taxi guide to visit them one by one. Each cenote charges its own fee (confirm on site), and three to five can be visited in a day. Some offer simple lodging and meals. Since Cuzamá is very close, the two can be visited on the same day. Please shower before entering the water and do not wear sunscreen.
Opening hours
Daily about 8:00 am–5:00 pm (varies by well)
