Noh Mozón

Open, pool-like cenote at Pixyah in Tecoh municipality, south-east of Mérida, reached by dirt road. Sunlight lights a round pool about 30 × 20 m; the main basin is about 24–25 m deep, while some sources quote 45–48 m for the deepest point. It is used for snorkelling, freediving, recreational and technical dives because of its caverns and caves, and local divers have placed a nativity scene at 7 m.
