YUCATAN LAGOONS - AS BEAUTIFUL AS CENOTES
There is a lot of chatter about the Yucatan's Cenotes — all of which is warranted — and yet we hear very little of the lagoons in Tulum — which are just as stunning.
That’s why we’ve decided to highlight them for you in this months blog post.
Yal Ku Lagoon
Yal Ku is a coastal Lagoon located in Akumal between Tulum and Playa Del Carmen.
Fresh water from surrounding cenotes escapes to the sea through this inland lagoon.
Similar to Casa Cenote, this results in a waterway of brakish water — a mix of fresh and salt water coming together to create a home for various fish species.
In additional to the wonders discovered from snorkeling this beautiful lagoon — the above water area is also surounded by sculptures, sandy beaches and hammocks.
Additional Details
Opens from 9am - 5pm, 7 days a week
Entrance fee of 300MXN pesos or more
Bring or rent snorkel gear and life jackets
Kaan Lum Lagoon
Kaan Lum Lagoon is a warm water lagoon that boasts a stunning range of blues.
Except for the cenote in the centre of the lagoon, which is blocked off due to stronger currents that could pull you under, the waters are shallow and calm.
It’s located in Tulum, only a 10min drive from the main strip. It has a large dock with benches and umbrellas, as well as some swings in the lagoon.
IMPORTANT NOTICE:
To protect the stunning waters of Kaan Lum, you’re asked not to apply sunblock or bug repellent before entering the waters — and in fact they won’t even let you through the gate with them.
Additional Details:
No cell service
Bring cash for all transactions
Opens from 9am - 4pm, 7 days a week
Entrance fee of 300MXN pesos or more
Kayak and Paddelboard rentals are available or you can pay a fee to use your own
