Laguna Om Biological Station

is located in the Ejido Laguna Om Forest Area, Othón P. Blanco Municipality, Quintana Roo, Mexico. This forest area spans 35,000 hectares and is one of the largest forest blocks in southern Quintana Roo. Alongside the Calakmul Biosphere Reserve, it forms a key conservation region. It preserves a unique sample of humid forest, protects scenic landscapes, safeguards important cultural heritage—including a major pre-Hispanic Mayan archaeological site recognized by UNESCO as a World Cultural Heritage Site—and promotes scientific research.

The Laguna Om Biological Station is at  the road, 5 km before reaching the town of Nuevo Becar, Quintana Roo.
