Take A Ride Or Paddle On Laguna De Bacalar
Riviera Maya Laguna De Bacalar

Laguna de Bacalar is an enchanting body of water. Bacalar is located just 30 miles from Belize, and a little more than an hour from the edge of Riviera Maya, but the journey is worth it. This freshwater haven is often called the “Lagoon of Seven Colors” because the lagoon has so many different hues of blue.

Much of this is because the lagoon ranges from very shallow to 300 feet deep. This stunning and clean water offers endless recreational activities. In addition to paddling and swimming, you can take a boat ride through this mesmerizing color-changing lagoon.

Bacalar is the ultimate cenote. It was once a bunch of different cenotes that collapsed to form this giant lagoon. It is a great place to have some fun in a lush natural setting, while also relaxing and snapping a few incredible photos.
