Ep11 - TOP 6 best things to do in BACALAR, MEXICO! (Lake of 7 colours, is it worth the hype?) 

Episode 11 - Bacalar, Mexico
In this episode, we share our top 6 best things to do in Bacalar, Mexico. Also known as the laguna de los 7 colores due to the different shades of the mesmerising water - we had heard about Bacalar from so many different travellers, so we were sure to add it to our itinerary. In this video we try to answer the question - does Bacalar live up to the hype?
Note: this was filmed in April 2021, we read many reports that the lake had lost its distinctive colour due to intense rainy season in 2020. Although not back to its supposed best, we found the lake to be beautiful and mesmerising, with the ecosystem clearly recovering and in a better place than it was!
