Sailing Tour through the Laguna de los Siete Colores

/ August 12, 2026

1.Sailing Tour through the Laguna de los Siete Colores

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 1,521 reviews · 3 hours (approx.) · from $40Our pick

Sail Bacalar’s Seven Colors Lagoon on a small boat, swim at top spots, and enjoy fruit, beers, and a simple brunch for about $40.

“This was a highlight of our trip to Bacalar! Leondro and Cecile were fabulous - super friendly, explained a ton about the Laguna and the town of Bacalar itself. They took us to less busy spots to swim - at one point it was literally like we had a private lake to ourselves! We appreciated their commitment to protecting the lagoon, as that is a shared value, and why we booked a sailing tour specifically. One note - bring lots of protective gear as the boat isn’t covered and sunscreen use (even biodegradable/reef safe) isn’t allowed in the lagoon.”

They took to the north part of the lake first which is completely turquoise, here we laid anchor and did some terrific swimming. Afterwards we went to a cenote within the laguna. Be sure to ask to go with Omar and Enrique when you book! Omar plays perfect tunes whilst on the boat. 10/10 would recommend this tour!”

Que bonita manera de conocer Bacalar sin perjudicar el ambiente con los motores de gasolina.”

“Diego and Armando gave a wonderful private tour of the lagoon and took us to some of the more secluded parts away from the larger boat groups. Diego had a lot of knowledge of the area and was able to explain a lot about the lagoon and the area of Bacalar. Fabulous time and because it was a private tour we could go at our own pace. The lagoon itself is lovely to swim in, especially on a hot day!”
