After an unusual rainy season, where the state of Quintana Roo was affected by various tropical storms and hurricanes, causing both material damage and damage to natural areas, including the Bacalar lagoon, famous for its turquoise tones and crystalline water.<\/p>\n\n

For both locals and visitors to the lagoon, it was evident that its waters had changed color, leading to comments about whether the lagoon was contaminated, which is incorrect. The lagoon, known as the lagoon of seven colors, has a primary function within the ecosystem, acting as a water-cleaning filter. <\/p>\n\n

The Riviera Maya has several underground rivers interconnected with the lagoon, which suffered the ravages of the rains. Although the natural cleaning process of the lagoon is slow, it is a reality, specifically in the area known as \u201clos r\u00e1pidos\u201d (the rapids), where there is a constant current that allows the area to be cleaned, all a natural process without human intervention.<\/p>\n\n

The \u201clos r\u00e1pidos\u201d area stands out for its incredible turquoise tones, where it is common to see various boats with visitors enjoying its calm waters in a relaxed and exclusive environment.<\/p>\n\n

We share current photographs of the \u201clos r\u00e1pidos\u201d area within the Aldea Mayab<\/a> community, where you can enjoy the lagoon in all its splendor.<\/p>\n\n
