Las Coloradas + Lagartos River Trip
Description
Having picked you up from your hotel in Riviera Maya at 6:30 am, we'll set off northbound for the Lagartos River Natural Reserve.
When we get there, we'll hop on a speedboat to discover the natural treasures hidden on the coasts of the Yucatán Peninsula. We'll travel along the Lagartos River and pass through an area with mangroves, where we'll spot the flamingoes that live in this part of Mexico and some other bird species.
Our boat will then take us straight to the uniquely beautiful Las Coloradas complex. Its high concentration of salt and microscopic algae has turned the water beautiful shades of yellow, orange and pink, creating a magical color effect.
Before our boat trip comes to an end, we'll make a stop for a Mayan beauty treatment. Join us to find out what this will be! We'll also take some time to do a bike tour around Las Coloradas so we can fully appreciate this spectacular enclave. We'll get back on the speedboat and sail to a pristine beach where we'll relax on the sand and swim in the crystal-clear water.
On the beach, we'll head to a restaurant to have a lunch consisting of local fish and seafood. Delicious! You'll then be dropped off at your hotel at around 7:30 pm.
