About This Tour
Embark on a two-hour boat journey to explore the mangroves, where you will admire a wide variety of birds in their natural habitat. With a bit of luck, we may also spot crocodiles and have the chance to photograph them. We will then continue to the feeding area of the pink flamingos. From a safe distance, you will be able to appreciate the beauty of these unique birds in an unforgettable natural spectacle. (The best season to see flamingos in Celestún is from November to March). After this experience, you will enjoy the traditional and famous “Mayan Bath,” a skin treatment with exfoliating clay that will leave you feeling cleaner and rejuvenated. To end on a high note, we will return to the beach of Río Lagartos, where you can rinse off the clay and relax in the calm waters of the Gulf of Mexico. Don’t miss this adventure in the Ría Lagartos Biosphere Reserve, a true natural sanctuary that will gift you unforgettable moments.
