A natural refuge full of charm
2023-07-06 | merida
An hour from Mérida, between soft sands and green mangroves, is a magical town that lives up to its title. That place is Sisal, a hidden refuge in the heart of the Yucatecan coast, ideal for a weekend getaway in nature.
Today, we’ll take you on a journey to discover what makes Sisal such a special place and why it should be an unmissable destination on your next trip to southern Mexico.
The Magic of Sisal
Sisal is a charming coastal town in the state of Yucatan, Mexico. Its history dates back to colonial times, when it was nothing more and nothing less than one of the main ports in the region, from which large Spanish vessels set sail and arrived.
Today, it retains its historic charm within its cobbled streets, decorated cottages, and laid-back atmosphere that will make you feel like inside a time bubble.
One of the biggest attractions of Sisal are its beaches — postcard landscapes where you can sunbathe, rest in the shade facing the sea, and cool off in the always blue and calm waters of the Gulf of Mexico. Its miles and miles of coastline offer endless options for all tastes, from long, pristine beaches to small, private, and charming coves.
A large nature reserve
If you are a nature lover, the abundant marine life around will be a spectacle of color, a treasure waiting to be discovered and explored in hours and hours of snorkeling with the family, or in a good diving session in the nearby reefs.
Additionally, you shouldn’t miss the “El Palmar” Ecological Reserve for the world, a protected sanctuary that is home to a great diversity of flora and fauna, including impressive mangroves, seasonal birds, and endemic species of the region. You will be able to walk through the natural trails and be surprised by the undeniable beauty of this unique ecosystem.
