Bacalar Seven Color Lagoon Pontoon Boat Tour with Open Bar
Discover a completely different side of the Mexican Caribbean at Bacalar’s famous Seven Color Lagoon. Known for its remarkable shades of turquoise and blue, Bacalar is far from a typical beach day in Costa Maya. Here, freshwater cenotes, centuries of history and tales of pirates come together in one of Mexico’s most distinctive natural settings. Experience the lagoon the best way possible — from the water. Cruise by pontoon across the Seven Color Lagoon, swim in its refreshing waters and discover the historic Pirate Channel, once part of the routes used by pirates to enter Bacalar, while your local guide brings the lagoon’s stories to life. And this is an adventure made for enjoying: small groups, a Mexican lunch and open bar are all included, along with round-trip transportation planned around your cruise day. Come for the Seven Colors, follow the stories of pirates, and discover a side of the Mexican Caribbean you never expected.
