#summerdestinations 💞Reasons to Recommend: This summer we visited the Yucatán. First stop was Merída & this was a city with lots of character & very friendly people. We took a day trip to see the ruins and it was gorgeous swimming in the #cenotes! The cenotes are underground pools. It was a very interesting experience literally swimming underground. Also being in the city with the Mayan ruins was a completely different feeling while in #mexico. We also went to #playadelcarmen by local bus (ADO company - highly recommended the bus was comfortable and we were on time, also the waiting area was really nice) for some #resort action at El Beso/Ocean Riviera (Also booked on Trip) with a swim up room highly recommend upgrading your life and having a swim up room a pool right outside of your room is absolutely amazing it made for great wind downs before bed. Definitely try it. Highly recommend stepping outside of the normal Mexico City & Cancun bubble!
Nikkilaoshi
Pink Lake is located in Las Coloradas on the east coast of the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico, about 270 km from Cancun. This pale pink lagoon is formed by the closure of the bay mouth of the shallow water bay, which can be connected to the sea when the tide is relatively large.
The Pink Lake is actually a salt lake. In the days when there is no wind, it can be reflected like a mirror of the sky but a pink scene. The color of the
Pink Lake is derived from plankton. The color of the lake is a bit like the feather of a flamingo. The lake is surrounded by a circle of white salt flats.
This pink lake has inadvertently attracted the attention of countless visitors with its unique natural beauty.
