Laguna Nichupté
Best time to visit
Early morning or late afternoon for cooler temperatures and the most bird activity; dry season (November to April) brings calmer waters and clearer skies.
Budget tips
Shore access is free; kayak and paddleboard rentals typically cost MXN 200–400 per hour, shared sunset boat tours about MXN 300–600, and booking directly at local kiosks saves commission.

About
クイックファクト: A winding network of brackish waterways snakes between the hotel strip and the mainland, where mangrove roots cradle juvenile fish and shelter wading birds. Kayak and small-boat tours thread narrow channels at dawn and dusk, offering frequent sightings of herons, frigatebirds and the occasional crocodile near the mangrove edges.
ハイライト: Glass-smooth water mirrors neon hotel lights and copper-pink sunrises, while paddling between towering mangrove trunks feels like moving through a living cathedral. Experienced local guides often point out American crocodiles basking less than 10 meters from shore at dusk, then direct beams into the roots to reveal clusters of fiddler crabs scuttling in the mud.
Insider tips
- Wear reef-safe sunscreen and lightweight long sleeves to protect against sun and mosquitoes.
- Bring a waterproof bag and phone for low-light sunset reflections and skyline shots from the lagoon.
- Start at sunrise for the best birdwatching and fewer people, or join a small shared tour after 5pm for cooler, scenic sunsets.
- Skip the large party boats and choose a kayak or small eco-tour to see wildlife up close and avoid noise.
