Life in the Caribbean - Visiting a Hidden Lagoon


Despite it being one of the most beautiful places on earth, one of the cons of living in the Caribbean is that nowadays it´s a trending destination. Wherever you look at you will find a touristic group; if you throw a stone it will definitely land in a resort, a restaurant or a condo development.

This means that most of the nice day trip destinations is always crowded and, since most people only visit these spots to take an instagram picture and then leave, most places have a lot of movement during the day.

But this is not the case for Kann Luum Lagoon...

A hidden spot between Playa del Carmen and Cancun, Kaan Luum Is an Ejido, which means it's a Mayan group owned piece of land, that it can't be sold to private entities, it's from the Mayan community.

This place is not even known among locals, you really have to dig deep to find out how it's called and where it is, so please don't share this particular article in social media haha, to keep it a secret.

The bank of the lagoon is made of mud and minerals, this means you can use it to exfoliate your skin (you'll see me doing exactly my that in the video). The place is not crowded - for Caribbean standards - and it's surrounded by jungle.

There's a limit to where you can swim though, because there's a very deep cenote in the middle of the lagoon, where people can easily drown if they're not cautious. It's mainly used to do scuba diving, so they don't let people go through. If you ask me, that's a wise decision.

I hope you enjoy this video, this was definitely one of the most amazing day trips I've had in the Caribbean :)
