What you can expect

  • WELCOME to the Mayan Paradise!!!

    If you're looking for HOSPITALITY, PRIVACY, ADVENTURE and a SUSTAINABLE ACTIVITY, we're the ones for you.

    We are Liz (Biologist) and Danny (Sustainable Sailing and Mayan Culture Facts), and we'll guide you on this wonderful route that we've created for you and your companions: “Immersive Experience with Nature + Learning.” Are you READY?

    You'll sail and ENJOY the most pristine SPOT in the entire lagoon in the most responsible way with certified guides. You'll FALL IN LOVE with its turquoise colour in a place immersed in the Mayan jungle and surrounded by springs. YOU'LL BREATHE THE PUREST OXYGEN IN THE WORLD AND LEARN ABOUT the creatures that produce it (Microbialite Reef).

    You'll SWIM in the largest cenote in the lagoon with the gear I provide. You'll be able to observe and identify the local flora and fauna using BINOCULARS and support guides. You'll LEARN fascinating facts about Mayan history, and you'll MEET FIBBO, the GOLDEN ratio in nature, and JUAN, the Mangrove.

    Your palate will SAVOR a DECORATIVE PICNIC: an explosion of flavours and fruity colours, accompanied by HOMEMADE REFRESHMENTS, while CONTEMPLATING a STUNNING PANORAMIC VIEW of the 7+ shades of turquoise that nature offers us.
