From Merida: Rio Lagartos & Las Coloradas River Safari
📍 Río Lagartos, Yucatan, Mexico
Explore Río Lagartos and Las Coloradas on a full-day nature safari featuring a boat ride, bird and crocodile watching, a traditional Mayan Bath, and free time at a pristine beach.
About this experience
Rio Lagartos is a small fishing village in a Nature Reserve; one of the natural treasures of the Yucatan Peninsula. . Here we can enjoy a boat tour through its water canals surrounded by mangroves, where you can observe a variety of species of birds such as pink flamingos, herons, eagles, seagulls, pelicans, and cormorants. During the tour, we pass under the bridge of Las Coloradas to get to the salt deposits where we see different bodies of water involved in this process, some of which an eye-catching pink. Following, we will rejoice in the Mayan Bath, covering the body in nutrient-rich clay. Next, we’ll be heading to an unspoiled beach to remove the clay in the crystal water, where we will enjoy ourselves with the tasty local fish-and-shellfish-based food.
