Cenote Xooch
A remote and largely undiscovered cenote located deep in the jungle near Mérida in Yucatán state. Cenote Xooch features an impressive underground chamber with stalactites and strikingly clear water. It is managed by the local ejido community, and the experience feels genuinely off-the-beaten-path compared to more touristic cenotes in Quintana Roo.

The Cuzamá cenotes are a group of three underground cenotes — Chelentún, Chacsinicché, and Bolonchoojol — located near the town of Cuzamá, about 50 kilometers from Mérida. What makes this experience unique is the transport: visitors ride horse-drawn carts along the old narrow-gauge rail tracks of a former henequen plantation to reach each cenote.
