When the night falls, the adventure starts at natural reserve “Ría Celestún”, if you are lucky, you can see mangrove trees surrounding the estuary, while you slowly move in a boat manually steered with a wooden oar, always equipped with proper gear for your safety. Be always vigilant for the pleasant surprise of watching owls, fireflies, or brilliant fish. The sound of insects, and mainly from birds nesting or resting, promise a special encounter with local fauna, and in this specific case, the quest of a small moreletti crocodile.
With some patience and help from the specialized guide, you will see one of the so-called “swamp crocodile”. If conditions allow it, you may have direct contact with the reptile, transforming that moment in something special and creating a complete connection with nature. At the end of the night, you would have lived a unique and unforgettable experience in a freshwater swamp in Yucatán.
It includes barge tour, water bottles, sodas, federal certified guide, flora, and fauna watching, lamps, and repellent.
It is recommended to make a reservation by phone call or social media.
