The Cenote Azul in Bacalar is one of the deepest natural pools in the entire Yucatan Peninsula. With an impressive depth of almost 90 m and a width of 200 m, it is more like a lake than a waterhole. It is an open cenote, meaning it is completely covered by limestone formations. The bright blue color is mesmerizing and many come to relax here all day. There is a rope running down the middle that you can use to rest while swimming in the water. A wide variety of fish also live beneath the iridescent surface.
