SIAN KA'AN
Experience animals in the wild on our Sian Ka’an tour
Sian Ka'an in Mayan means "place where the sky is born". As you drift down the lagoon looking at the colors of the water and the sky you will understand why!
If you love animals then there really is only one way to get up close to them, and that is by observing them in their natural habitat, and not in captivity. The best place to see dolphins in the Riviera Maya is not in a dolphinarium but in Sian Ka’an Biosphere Reserve.
Our Sian Ka’an tours are the perfect way to introduce your children to wildlife. Our experienced guides will give them a fun and exciting lesson they will never forget! Expect to see birds, dolphins, sea turtles, and if we are lucky manatees and crocodiles!
If you like nature, you will love this all-inclusive tour package.
Sian Ka’an is a National Park covering 5280 km²/1304714 acres, making it the third largest protected area in Mexico. Established in 1986 the biosphere reserve is as well a UNESCO World Heritage Site and considered one of the most beautiful areas of the Yucatan Peninsula. As it is a protected area, swimming with the animals is against the park rules and not allowed. However, we do offer snorkeling on the coral reef if weather conditions allow.
