Cenote Uinic

Cenotes

Cenote Uinic lies near the town of Homun in the Mexican state of Yucatan, one of the cluster of karst sinkholes the area is known for. Published descriptive detail on its chamber, depth or public access beyond its name and location is thin. This entity documents Cenote Uinic specifically as a geological formation, a Homun-area cenote whose fuller description is owed to a depth wave.
