Itinerary and highlights
Located at the eastern end of the Yucatan peninsula, the Río Lagartos Biosphere Reserve. It has a variety of mangroves, small estuaries, coastal lagoons, marshes, and savannahs that are home to a variety of species and serve as nesting sites for some of them.
We will take a boat ride to get to Las Cooloadas and you will see Birds and marine species in the way
The popularly known as pink beach in Yucatan is visited annually by thousands of tourists intrigued by its peculiar pink lake, this paradise of calm waters is located in the Yucatan peninsula and is world famous. Those who have visited it are impressed by its beauty. The pink lagoon is a spectacle to behold that no one can miss. The lagoon has this particular tone because the water has a very high concentration of salt, and millions of microorganisms live in the depth that give it that pink appearance.
Keep in mind that depending on the sunlight it is the shadow that you will see. Friends! It is not the same shade of pink in the morning as it is at sunset.
You will have time to look around and take all the photos you want, there is a great view to capture. We will also take a mud bath in the ecological reserve and that is good luck, it is optional to do so, then we will rinse off taking a dip in the nearby beach
You will have time for lunch in the restaurant
