Explore Río Lagartos and Las Coloradas on a full-day nature safari through the natural treasures of the Yucatán Peninsula. Your journey begins in Río Lagartos, a charming fishing village within a Nature Reserve, where you will cruise through canals surrounded by mangroves. During the tour, you will observe an amazing variety of birds, including pink flamingos, eagles, and pelicans, as well as spot crocodiles in their natural habitat.
The journey continues to Las Coloradas, a surreal landscape where salt deposits tint the water a vibrant pink, creating a unique contrast under the Yucatán sun. Here, you will learn about traditional salt harvesting techniques before enjoying the Mayan Bath, an ancient tradition of coating the body in nutrient-rich clay to revitalize the skin.
Finally, we will head to a pristine beach with crystal-clear waters to remove the clay and relax in an untouched natural setting. The experience is completed with an à la carte lunch at a local restaurant in Río Lagartos, where you can taste the delicious regional gastronomy before heading back to Mérida.
