Sagrado Cenote Azul lies along the highway between Chichen Itza and Valladolid on Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula, a sinkhole reported at about 26 meters deep, its waters surrounded by vegetation. It is a karst formation of the kind common across the northern Yucatan, where the region's limestone bedrock has collapsed into flooded cavities below, and it draws visitors from both nearby towns as one of several named cenotes along the same stretch of road as the much larger and better-known Ik Kil. This entity documents Sagrado Cenote Azul specifically as a geological formation, a distinct feature from both the already-live Ik Kil and the already-live Cenote Azul near Puerto Aventuras, a coincidentally identical name for an unrelated cenote roughly 300 kilometers to the southeast.
