Bacalar, often referred to as the "Lagoon of Seven Colors, " is a hidden gem in Mexico's Quintana Roo state. Known for its stunning, crystal-clear waters in varying shades of blue and turquoise, Bacalar offers a tranquil and idyllic escape. The town's charming streets are lined with colorful buildings, and the historic San Felipe Fort provides a glimpse into its colonial past. It's a paradise for nature enthusiasts, with opportunities for kayaking, snorkeling, and exploring the cenotes and cenote Azul. Bacalar's serene beauty and relaxed atmosphere make it a perfect destination for those seeking a more peaceful alternative to the bustling tourist hubs on the nearby Riviera Maya. Thanks, Chris and Sara!

Looks great. Almost unreal how blue those waters are! The tour you took: what was the name of the company?

[kaylaandmarkalan]

Crazy how this is in Mexico! The water is so blue, especially for being fresh water and not salt water. Not sure whether Kramer or Chris’s shirt was the best part of the video! 😂

[HayleyandJake]

Thanks for taking us to Bacalar with you! ☺️ We’re really excited to visit this area! Kramer did a great job swimming 🙌 We really enjoy exploring the Pueblo Mágicos. We’ve hit quite a few of them on our trip. Did you end up seeing any crocs? 🐊
