Sian Ka'an Biosphere Reserve, Chunyaxche

Amazing place, simply amazing. Brilliant management plan for tourism, fingers crossed that doesn't change. Pepe was an awesome guide, very knowledgeable and had an addictive level of enthusiasm. Would love to return in 20 years to see any changes

You can skip it! 100 pesos entrance fee for a bad road which is mainly closed on both sites. Everything is private and the beaches plus the nature is full of plastic. I think mexicos beautiful nature is close to be past thing. Its sad but when you see what you can buy here in the supermarkets its not a surprise. Plus most of the people here just only think on profit and don't care about their nature.

We went there with a tour organized by the local community. The staff was super friendly and open to share thoughts. On our boat trip we stopped on a beach that was full of littering. When talking with the tour guides they said that the place was completely abandoned by the administration. Even though they do their best to preserve it, it is only that much they can do. I hope everyone who visits this place reports it to put some pressure on the admin. 🙏🏽

This is by far mine and my wife's favourite trip we have done in mexico so far and we are on around 10 now, amazing day out, learn so much about the wildlife and what a place to see them all in there own habitat, will be doing again when we return, can't wait

The natural reserve is hard to see if you don't take the overpriced boat tours. The price has rised probably due to the lack of competition. We decided to take the road that runs along the lagoon and go to Punta Allen. The road is in good shape the first few kilometers after it's bumpy. But almost all the shore side is private. We didn't get how it's possible since it's a natural reserve supposed to be preserved (that's they tell you everytime you pay the entry). Thankfully, there was a bridge where we could see crocodiles and have a view on the lagoon. But the worst part was when we finally could reach the beach. It was full of littering. And it's all like this all along the natural reserve. They should do something quick. All the littering must come from Tulum by the sea. It's urgent to take care of this!
