Celestun and Pink Flamingos

We will drive to the quaint fishing village of Celestun, located 90km west of Merida. The Celestun Biosphere Reserve is home to 587 plant species, 42 of which are endemic. The fauna found in the reserve include 304 bird species, including the Mexican pink flamingo, least tern, jabiru, king vulture and greater white-fronted goose. There are also 75 mammal and 64 reptile species.

We will take a boat ride through the estuaries to observe the beautiful pink flamingo colonies and other birds. We will make a stop at fresh water springs where the water is sweet, transparent and ideal for swimming. Includes seafood lunch.
