Celestún

For the traveler seeking quiet communion with the nature of coastal Yucatan, the small, modest fishing town of Celestún offers the perfect setting. Miles of deserted beaches offer rewarding explorations for the beach comber. The nearby 146,000 acre Biosphere Reserve gives birders the chance to see the American Flamingo as well as 300 other species of birds, including cormorants, pelicans and herons. Crocodiles patrol the estuaries. Four kinds of sea turtles nest on the beaches, while boa constrictors rule the scrub and marshland. And after the adventures of the day, several open-air restaurants offer cold beer and heaping platters of freshly caught seafood.

Celestún

Para el viajero que busca identificarse con la naturaleza costera de Yucatán, el pequeño pueblo pesquero de Celestún es el lugar perfecto. Kilómetros de playas desiertas ofrecen exploraciones ideales para los admiradores del mar. La Reserva de la Biosfera se extiende unos 600 kilómetros cuadrados y da la oportunidad de observar el flamenco americano y otras 300 especies de aves tales como cormoranes, pelícanos y garzas. Cocodrilos patrullan los estuarios. Cuatro tipos de tortugas marinas anidan en las playas, mientras que las boas son dueñas de la maleza y los pantanales. Al final de un día de aventuras, varios restaurantes al aire libre ofrecen cerveza fría y platos repletos de pescado y mariscos frescos.
