Mexico: Celestun Beach Escape
When do you want to go?
Cast your ballot and then escape the political ads and noise in the Mexican fishing town of Celestun on the Gulf of Mexico. This is a six-day, five-night escape to the beach. Relax in the guesthouse pool or the warm waters of the Gulf, read or nap on your beach lounge chair under a shade sale, sip a cocktail while watching the sunset, and eat amazing food.
Day 1
Arrival in Merida
When you arrive at Merida International Airport, your driver will be waiting to transport you to the guesthouse in Celestun (it’s about a 90-minute drive). You’ll have time to settle into your room — with a beach view and a private balcony — before joining your fellow travelers on the roof for a cocktail or two and then we’ll walk down to the Zocalo for our orientation dinner. Meals included: dinner.
Day 2
Celestun
There’s nothing scheduled today. Take the day to relax and unwind from the hecticness of your daily life. Have a leisurely breakfast down the street at Peter Pan’s and then relax beneath a shade sail. When you get hungry, stroll down the beach to an amazing seafood lunch at La Ramada de la Tia Candi’s where they treat everyone like family. After your afternoon siesta, we’ll gather on the roof to watch the sunset as we sip a cocktail. And then we’ll wander off to dinner. Meals included: sunset cocktails on the roof.
Day 3
Celestun
Today, you have a choice of two tours. One picks us up at 9:30 on the beach in front of the guesthouse and goes down the beach and then back up the Rio Celestún looking for flamingos. The other takes you by moto-taxi from the guesthouse at 5:00 am for a three-hour canoe tour of the Rio and mangroves with guides from the Guardianes De Los Manglares De Dzinintún. Meals included: sunset cocktails on the roof.
Day 4
Celestun
This is a second day of relaxing at the beach. Meals included: sunset cocktails on the roof.
Day 5
Celestun
Today is a repeat of day 3 giving you a chance to take the tour you haven’t taken. Meals included: sunset cocktails on the roof.
Day 6
Flights home
Depart Celestun at 9:30 am in order to arrive at Merida International Airport by 11:00 am for flights home.
