  • Today we drive 2 hours south of Tulum to Bacalar (commonly known as the Maldives of Mexico) to see if the rumors are true and if the blue water it's famous for has disappeared from last year's hurricane season. We also check out the seaside town of Mahahual as we spend 3 days exploring this region of Mexico. what the heck!

    1:22 - Cenote Azul
    1:56 - Los Rapidos (Rapids)

    NOOOOO!!! You are standing on stromatolites at 2:23… You are supposed to go on a paddle board to that location and let yourself be carried away by the current DONT STEP ON THE STROMATOLITES … The restaurant “Los Rápidos” has no interest in preserving this treasure … Bacalar has the largest stromatolite reef in the world from 1,000-9,500 years old!when you step on them or touch them they die stromatolites are in charge of the transparency , blue color and purity of the lagoon.. for anyone going in the future please please do your research before going 🥺🥺🥺

      oh no I was standing on SAND not the stromatolites, the drone video is of random people I saw - I am sorry about this. There is not many signs saying anything so it can be very hard to see where you can walk and where you cannot walk. But I don't think I was on them.....? either was I am sorry!

    Thank you for this informative video. I ask and wonder, if tourists are taking care of the natural ecosystem to preserve it's sacred beauty. We tourists must be responsible when we travel to sacred lands of our planet, Mother Earth. We can't just go and enjoy and leave our waste, we must also see how we can preserve, protect and respect for future generations. Next time, please consider including this care-ful information in your promotional video. Our planet and future is at stake. Peace and love for you and your future generations.

      U can, no restrictions if your drone is under 250g in Mexico, same as the United States. Restricted is flight 9.2 kilometers ✈️🛫 of any airport. Any drone over 250g needs to be registered to Direccion General de Aeronautica Civil
