Bird Island

Centro de la Laguna de Bacalar (frente a la zona hotelera), Bacalar, Quintana Roo.

A small biodiversity sanctuary in the heart of the lagoon, home to parrots, owls, and the rare snail hawk. As a protected area to preserve the natural habitat, landing on the island is strictly prohibited; observation is only allowed from boats. Open for visitors Monday to Sunday.

Local Tip

"Visit during sunrise for the best bird-watching experience. Note: Motorized boats are not allowed on Wednesdays as part of the lagoon's environmental recovery program; on this day, you can only visit by kayak"
