Not many international travelers know about Bacalar and even though we spent almost 6 months in Mexico searching for unique places to visit, rarely anyone mentioned Bacalar Lagoon.
Tulum is your cute Instagrammable “Coachella-esque” spot and Bacalar is where you go to relax, get away from the crowds and swim in pristine turquoise waters.
Along with hanging out for a couple of days at Cenote Cocalitos, we also stayed a few days at Ecocamping Yaxche campground located in the northern part of Lake Bacalar.
