Xcaret

Xcaret is a great place to learn about the Mexican and Mayan Culture unveiling their roots, customs, traditions, cultural, and natural richness. The underground rivers, beaches, flora and fauna has really got the show going. It was all presented in a beautiful natural setting.




Here are a few of the animals we especially enjoyed, the aquarium with great fish and coral displays, the turtle sanctuary where we saw everything from the hatching to the old, huge guys in ponds.






The jaguars were especially fun to see. They were just over a deep ravine from us, so you felt up close and personal with them. They were beautiful.







There was a large flock of flamingos in all varying colors of coral. We were trying to tell if color indicated their sex? Do any of you know?

The Stingrays glided so beautifully through the water that I had to make a quick video of them. Hope it works so you can see the movement.
