Mahahual is another interesting little town located on the coast of the Mexican Caribbean. It is located just north of the Belize border and south of the Sian Kan Biosphere in the State of Quintane Roo. This marvelous place is now being used as an important port for international cruise ships and it offers a very interesting combination of unspoiled rainforest, lagoons, and beaches.

If you visit this place on a normal day, you will probably call it a ghost town. This is because with its 150 inhabitants it is usually quiet and un-crowded. On a cruise ship arrival day, though, things are totally different. The town comes to life and things get really exciting. Bars and Restaurants open their doors and different gift shops appear all of the sudden. 

This is something that makes this place unique. There is always something for every taste. If you prefer to relax and spend some quiet time at the beach, you can do it on non-arrival cruise ship day, but if you’d rather enjoy drinking a beer in a bar, doing some souvenir shopping or just looking at people from different nationalities, you can have that too.

 The town offers everything you are looking for when going on a vacation to the beach. It offers anything from cheap condo rentals to expensive hotel resorts. There are also many different fun activities to do here. Among them are fishing, diving, snorkeling, biking, and birdwatching. Many different tours and services are available to do these fun acivities.

If you ever get the chance to take a cruise ship to the mexican caribbean, don’t forget to visit this amazing little town in the Mexican Costa Maya.

This magnificent island is just 26 miles or 24 kilometers long and it’s located in the mayan mexico riviera to the northwest of Cancun. You can get to the Island either by ferry which you would need to take from a town called Chiquila or by plane flying from Cancun or Playa del Carmen. I especially like to go by ferry because that way I feel closer to nature, and from time to time you might be able to see dolphins or whales on the way.

This incredible Island is separated from the mainland coast of Mexico by a shallow lagoon Which gives sanctuary to thousands of flamingos, pelicans and other exotic birds and creatures. This island is also famous for its exciting tours that offers, such as whale shark watching and swimming tours, fishing tours, snorkeling tours, bird watching tours, and dolphin watching and swimming tours. The most incredible attraction in the island is the whale shark watching and swimming tour. This spectacular show is available only in this Island of the Mexican Caribbean from June to September because that’s when whale sharks swim near the Island to spend the summer season.

Holbox Island is considered a virgin tourist destination because very few outsiders visit the Island. This does not mean that if you visit it you won’t find a place to eat or sleep. The Island has several comfortable and reasonable hotels as well as condo vacation rentals. As far as places to eat, let me tell you that you don’t have to worry about that either. There are also some restaurants where you can eat anything from a slice of pizza to the catch of the day. Remember that this Island is a fishing village so don’t forget to try the delicious sea food the locals prepare with the catch of the day.

Anyway, if you happen to visit Cancun and are tired of being around too many tourists, remember that you can get away from it all by visiting this amazing Island. I strongly recommend that you come to this Island especially if you love birds, dolphins and whales.

This lagoon is famous because of its crystal clear waters and also because of the 7 different colors that you are able to see on the water. Of course, you need to come on a sunny day to be able to see those colors.

In order for you to get there you will need to fly to the city of Cancun if you are coming from abroad or to the city of Chetumal if you are coming from anywhere in Mexico. Chetumal is bodering the country of Belize so many visitors often go there to visit some of the interesting places it offers; places such as rivers, caves, and ruins.

Anyway, going back to the Bacalar Lagoon let me tell you that it is a very relaxing place to visit with family and friends. People like to go there to swin as well as to eat the at some of the local restaurants. These restaurants offer mainly seafood but you can also find others that serve international food.

I have also visited this place togheter wih my wife and some friends and we had a great time. We swam, ate, and spent some time just relaxing and talking. If you ever happen to be in Cancun, don’t forget to come and Visit this amazing lagoon. I know you won’t regret it.
