I’ve been wanting to take my MIL to Mahahual since she arrived to live with us in December. It’s an hour and half drive to the Caribbean coast, around the top of Laguna Bacalar, here in the southern-most part of Mexico.
A friend gifted us a night in a hotel which was the perfect opportunity to pack an overnight bag and catch a one pm. shuttle from Bacalar.
Mahahual used to be a sleepy little village. The addition of a huge pier to accommodate cruise ships changed everything.
We cruised the malecon, pedestrian walkway, lined with restaurants, vendors and shops. Alice, who lives to shop was in heaven.
We found Restaurante Las Chiquitas on Trip Advisor and had a lovely dinner.
And then there was breakfast on the beach the following morning.
It was just the right amount of time for people-watching, swimming, eating and shopping. A perfect bonding trip for Alice and me. Catching the combi (shuttle) was easy. I wouldn’t be surprised if one day we find a note on Alice’s door that says “gone to Mahahual, back whenever”. DOS TORTAS
What a beautiful place. I remember eating breakfast in the open like that with a water view at Cancun. Glad you had fun.
