It's a beautiful place where you can have direct contact with nature. This ecotourism project offers accommodation in wooden stilt houses located on the Catemaco Lagoon.
It offers various tourist services such as mud treatments for the skin, spiritual cleanses, Temazcal baths, as well as a crocodile area, an iguana sanctuary, a sculptural area with representations of pre-Hispanic artifacts, a small dock with kayaks and wooden canoes, a bathtub in the mineral spring, and an open-air monolithic theater.
One of the must-do experiences is an interpretive jungle tour with a biologist who will teach you the secrets of the place in a unique way.
Additionally, there's a restaurant with an incredible panoramic view of the lagoon, where you can try the specialty dish of "mojarra al chagalapoli," which is a regional fruit. If you're looking for something more exceptional, you can try "tegogolos," which are river snails served with a delicious pico de gallo sauce.
It's the location where the movie "The Medicine Man of the Jungle," starring Sean Connery, was filmed.
