The famous pink lakes of Mexico, Rio Lagartos. A magical sight! Pink waters and blue sky, It was like sunset reversed; a feast for eyes! There are plenty of colorful salt lakes near Las Coloradas/Rio Lagartos in the Yucatan peninsula. It is just 2 hours drive away from Chichén Itzá and around 3 hours from Cancun. Public transport is scarce in this part of Mexico.
We took a rental car and it was an easy and comfortable journey for us :) Once we reached Las Coloradas, we were welcomed by giant white salt mountains. After driving around the salt mountains for some time, we finally found someone local who took us to this beautiful private salt lake.

Top Gulf Coast of Mexico Hotel Reviews

Hotel Riu Palace Las Americas - Adults Only- All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"Room was clean and great food for dinner. I really liked the octopus at the Mexican restaurant, and everything at the Italian restaurant. From the moment you arrive and until you leave you feel that staff cares about you."

Sunscape Cancun All-Inclusive Resort & Spa by Hyatt

10/10 Excellent

"Everyone in the resort is so friendly and welcoming, the resort is very well maintained, rooms are spacious with comfortable beds and pillows. They have fun activities throughout the day. Food is really good, especially the Ventana buffet and At Sunset. We enjoyed every minute of out vacation and wish we could have stayed longer. "
