Travel towards Chiapas

Caribbean hut sleeping on our Mayan hammocks Mahahual Quintana Roo Yucatan Mexico cabañas

After almost three weeks of Caribbean, sun and paradisiac beaches, we ended our staying in the Yucatan peninsula moving from Tulum to Mahahual. This small village of fishermen, in the heart of the wonderful Costa Maya, let us feel the genuine rhythms of Mexican Caribbean. We slept in a cabaña, on our legendary Mayan hammocks (made of magüey)… here we found a very particular ecosystem, just within 100 meters: tropical jungle, mangroves, coconut palms and coral reef.

Finally, we started again our travel towards Chiapas. After a short staying in Chetumal, Quintana Roo’s capital, we passed near the “Reserva de la Biosfera de Calakmul”, along the border between Mexico, Belize and Guatemala, crossing numberless villages of campesinos and the deep jungle. Suddenly the great Yucatan plain ended and we entered a green region of hills, announcing the Sierra Madre and the city of Palenque. Finally we arrived in Chiapas, another dream of our life…
