La Carbonera in Yucatan, an Almost Secret Paradise
Feb 21, 2025
La Carbonera is an ecotourism destination that promises a unique adventure along the Yucatecan coast. Surrounded by mangroves, jungle, and an impressive variety of wildlife, this place invites you on an unforgettable journey through one of the most exotic corners of the Yucatán Peninsula.
The Origin of La Carbonera
This site was born as a result of Hurricane Gilbert in 1988, when the lagoon connected to the sea through a narrow inlet that remains open to this day.
This mix of fresh and salt water encouraged the growth of mangroves and petenes, creating an ecosystem where various species—such as migratory birds, reptiles, and fish—live in harmony.
And the best part is its privileged location: it lies between the ports of Chuburna and Sisal, making it easily accessible.
Enjoy the Experience
La Carbonera invites you to explore its canals by kayak, paddleboard, or boat, where you can admire the beauty of the mangroves and enjoy a spectacular sunset.
Additionally, you can refresh yourself in the crystal-clear waters of the Dzul-Ha spring, a natural space perfect for relaxation and connecting with nature.
You can also camp and delight in birdwatching, spotting species such as herons, pelicans, and pink flamingos.
Explore the Surroundings
Take advantage of your visit to La Carbonera to discover Chuburna and Sisal, nearby destinations with paradise-like beaches and delicious gastronomy. Don’t miss out on ceviche, fried or breaded fish, and the classic shrimp cocktail that will let you taste the best of the Yucatán coast.
Tips for Your Visit
