Experience the Best of Cancun and the Yucatan Peninsula on a Private Tour with Us
WILDLIFE & NATURE
Akumal
The ‘Place of the Turtles’ has been a feeding ground for thousands of years, and you can now swim with its locals, a variety of turtles, rays, squid and other fish. You must swim with a licensed guide who serve to protect this beloved species.
WILDLIFE & NATURE
Punta Laguna
A protected area where spider and howler monkeys roam freely in large groups, and where a local community takes its conservation efforts very seriously. This is also an excellent spot for seeing the jungle’s birdlife.
WILDLIFE & NATURE
Isla Blanca
My ‘happy place’, Isla Blanca is the nearest and last virgin beach on the outskirts of Cancun. 11km (7 miles) of uninhabited uninterrupted sand, an inland laguna teeming with birdlife, extensive sand dunes and the turquoise water of the Caribbean sea.
WILDLIFE & NATURE
Rio Lagartos
A small town form which you will want to take a boat tour into the waterways just inside the coast. See flamingoes, pelicans, osprey, crocodiles, a variety of eagles, cake yourself in cleaning mud, dip in a cenote and maybe see the pink waters of Las Coloradas.
WILDLIFE & NATURE
Ruta de los Cenotes
This road passes a great many cenotes, cutting through the jungle, and brings with it an extraordinary variety of exotic and colourful birdlife.
WILDLIFE & NATURE
Sian Kaan
An enormous biosphere reserve to which you can tour in boat from Tulum or Punta Allen. Fish for barracuda and make a ceviche on the boat, see turtles, flamingoes, spoonbills, sharks in a massive protected area with gorgeous waters.
WILDLIFE & NATURE
Las Coloradas
A somewhat naturally occurring, but artificially accentuated for tourism, body of water that appears pink due to its high salt levels, now used in salt farming. Can also be an excellent spot from which to see wonderful birds, such as flamingoes.
WILDLIFE & NATURE
Celestun
An hour from Merida, Celestun is probably the best place at which to see large numbers of flamingoes. On a boat tour you will also travel through the mangroves, perhaps see crocodiles and other impressive bird such as osprey.
