La Granada Waterfalls – Coatepec, Veracruz

MexicoVacationTravels.com — Tue, 09 Mar 2010 20:10:00 +0000

Planning on being on vacation in the city of Veracruz? Well, this is the most amazing day trip you can do if you want to visit a ‘pueblo magico’ about an hour away from the beautiful port city of Veracruz. The place is called Coatepec. Once you arrive to the town, you can grab some delicious cheap food at one of the restaurants surrounding the charming zocalo (city square) and just do some people watching and experience life as it should be.

Then I suggest picking up some bottled water as the hike up to see the waterfall can take a solid hour. To get to the beginning of the path to see La Granada waterfalls, just follow the signs through the town and you’ll get to a place where you can leave your car. You’ll see that it will be pretty much just you and the wilderness.

Now the hike begins. It’s a bit off the beaten track so don’t expect many people, you’ll be lucky if you see a couple of locals enjoying the waterfall. The hike is not too tough but it’s a nice workout. Once you get to the waterfall area, if you want to get real close, prepare to take off your shoes and walk through the river to cross over to the bottom of the falls. I’m telling you, it’s heaven!

Activities in Mexico

Touring isn’t just about the views and visiting landmarks and historical places. It’s also about doing activities that is best done here than anywhere else. A couple of things that I suggest you do are below.

Water Taxi Rides in Cabo
These water taxi rides can be so much fun and can take you from the marina down to Medana beach and even to a place called Lover’s Beach, which is on the very tip of the Cabo Peninsula. These water taxi boats have glass bottoms that help passengers see the fish that are swimming underfoot, a wonderful sight for children and adults to see.

Jungle Excursions in Puerto Vallarta
You should try and visit Yelapa, which can be reached by foot, by boat, or by mountain biking. This beach village is home to a jungle, a waterfall, and rivers that give you the jungle lifestyle that is uniquely Puerto Vallarta. Also, part of the Puerto Vallarta jungle experience is the canopy tour that gets you to see the flora and the fauna of the region in what may be your most exciting jungle adventure yet. You will be zipped above the treetops to see these wonders and more.

If you don’t enjoy this, I don’t know what else would please you. These things can be done here and here alone.

Cobá

daphne reyes — Mon, 25 Jan 2010 07:00:40 +0000

Cobá is a quiet, serene place, with a few tourists, it’s popular for serious bird watching. You can rent a bicycle or a guide who will also have transportation. You may walk but it’s quite far. Getting lost here is very possible, as sites and paths are not always clearly marked. If you decide to go on your own, it’s safe, simply resist the temptation to wander off into the jungle. Be sure to bring mosquito repellent, sturdy walking shoes or hiking boots, and plenty of water to drink. As Cobá is located inland from the ocean, it’s hotter and more humid, so visit as early in the day as you can.
Cobá is divided in several areas called groups, including the Cobá Group, which is home to the 79-foot temple. It would be nice to get here early enough to have the temple all to yourself. This group also includes a restored ball court, where the Maya played a sacred ball game. The Chumuc Mul Group is only partially excavated. Nochob Mul Group is fully excavated and includes the tallest pyramid in Cobá. After climbing 120 steps, you will enjoy the well-preserved temple on top and the breathtaking views.

San Blas, a small fishing town in the state of Nayarit is a treasure to behold. It is nestled in a swamp with jungles and mangroves that offers a natural habitat for snakes, crocodiles and birds. People come from all over North America to visit the Estuary, where migratory birds come all year round, and watch all kinds and species of birds.

Apart from these, San Blas also offers beautiful virgin beaches lined with palm trees. Going to San Blas would feel like hitting too many birds in one stone, pun intended.

Jaguar: the King of the Jungle

Omer — Mon, 22 Jun 2009 18:00:52 +0000

The jaguar has fascinated the mexican people since pre-historic times. The Mayas, Olmecs, Aztecs, and all the other peoples that have inhabited the land have attached great mythological and religious symbolism to this mighty beast, and the creature still remains a manifestation of the Mexican spirit with its noble form, powerful body, and indomitable spirit.

The Jaguar has the most powerful bite of any animal in the feline family. It is stocky, with thick bones and sturdy build, suited to its task of capturing all kinds of prey with ease and ruling the jungles. It is an apex predator, meaning that its only real enemies are human beings and destruction of its habitat by human beings.,

The Jaguar was also a major theme in pre-Columbian art. It was depicted in the were-jaguars of the Olmecs which is today believed to represent some kind of animal-human hybrid among native tribes.
