Overview

If you love nature and are interested in viewing unique Mexican wildlife, this tour is for you. On this tour we will visit the Rio Lagarto Nature Reserve located on the Yucatan Peninsula, this place is characterized by its beautiful landscapes, flora and fauna such as the famous flamingos that come to this place to feed and nest, generating a unique spectacle painting the sky pink with their flight. Also, you can see other endemic birds of the region such as herons, eagles ospreys and even migratory species.

We’ll also stop by Las Coloradas, an area of the lagoon where salt has been extracted from the seawater for decades. You’ll definitely want to have your camera ready since this area is known for its breathtakingly beautiful pink lagoon water. In the same way, you can exfoliate the skin with a mud bath if you wish. After exploring the Rio Lagartos, you’ll probably be hungry.

Your guide will take you to a local restaurant where you can enjoy a delicius lunch.

Grab your camera and prepare to witness one of Yucatán’s most breathtaking natural wonders! This extraordinary excursion takes you to Las Coloradas, where a series of vibrant pink lagoons create a surreal, dreamlike landscape that seems plucked from another world. The waters dazzle with their intense rosy hue - a natural phenomenon caused by unique salt concentrations and pigmented microorganisms. Under the golden Mexican sun, these cotton-candy colored lakes transform into the ultimate photographer’s paradise, offering once-in-a-lifetime shots at every turn. This ecosystem serves as a vital sanctuary for magnificent flamingos, whose iconic pink plumage comes from feasting on the lagoon’s brine shrimp and algae. Watch in awe as these elegant birds wade through their colorful habitat.

Then, prepare for pure relaxation as you arrive at a hidden beach, where nature provides the ultimate spa experience. Here, you’ll indulge in a natural exfoliation treatment, using the region’s mineral-rich mud to rejuvenate your skin.
