Bacalar Lagoon Excursion By Boat - From Costa Maya

Set off on an unforgettable adventure from Costa Maya to the Bacalar Lagoon, a vibrant paradise known as the "Lagoon of Seven Colors." Your 5-hour day begins with a scenic, comfortable drive from Costa Maya, passing through the lush jungle and charming towns. Upon arriving at Bacalar, you'll board a comfortable pontoon boat to explore the lagoon’s striking blue waters. As you cruise through the lagoon, your local guide will share local history and fascinating stories about the lagoon such as numerous pirate legends.

Your first stop is the Pirate Channel, a natural shallow section of the lagoon where you can jump in for a swim or simply wade through the crystal-clear water. The warm, inviting water is perfect for all swimmers, and life jackets are available for safety. Afterward, explore the ancient and hidden cenotes such as the local Cenote Esmeralda, whose deep waters provide a unique contrast to the shallow lagoon.

Before returning to Costa Maya, stop for an authentic Mexican meal at a nearby restaurant. After a day of exploring Bacalar Lagoon, your guide will top off the experience with an introduction to the region's local cuisine. Featuring freshly prepared local dishes and cold drinks, you'll wrap up your day with a refreshing meal before the journey back with plenty of time to spare.
