What you can expect

  • Embark on a unique journey through the Celestún Biosphere Reserve, guided by a wildlife field expert who will enrich your understanding of this extraordinary ecosystem. We will look for flocks of flamingos in their natural habitat. However, sightings are not guaranteed, as this depends on tides, weather conditions, and migratory patterns; however, if we are lucky enough, we will begin with the breathtaking sighting of flamingos, observed in their natural habitat as they feed and gather in vibrant pink flocks.

    Navigate through the expansive mangrove forests, home to a remarkable diversity of birds and endemic species, while learning about the crucial ecological role these coastal wetlands play. Continue with a visit to a freshwater spring, a crystal-clear ojo de agua fed by the peninsula’s underground aquifers—an ideal spot to cool off and connect with nature in its purest form.

    After the boat tour, we’ll head to the beach in Celestún, where you can relax at a charming beach club and enjoy the catch of the day, fresh seafood, the club’s facilities, and private beach access (vegetarian, vegan, as well as chicken and beef options are also available)
