Are alcoholic beverages included in this tour?

Will I be able to explore the Island of the Birds?

Like most areas in Bacalar, this island is protected, as it's the nesting spot of multiple migratory birds whose life cycle could easily be disturbed by exploring the island. Our sailboats will take you close to the island, though, and from there you'll be able to see multiple birds as they fly around the place.

What if I want to visit Bacalar on a Wednesday?

Every Wednesday, boat tours in Bacalar are paused as part of a local conservation initiative to protect the lagoon’s ecosystem. But you can still enjoy the area!
