Our visit unfolds as a meaningful and sustainable journey that highlights the inspiring work of a local community dedicated to conservation and hospitality. Set along the tranquil banks of the Lacantún River and bordering the extraordinary Montes Azules Biosphere Reserve, this experience reveals how community based tourism can protect natural heritage while creating opportunities for local families. Surrounded by the vibrant landscapes of the Lacandon Jungle, guests are welcomed into an environment where respect for nature guides every activity. The reserve is renowned for its remarkable biodiversity, sheltering a vast array of mammals, birds, and plant species that thrive within this lush ecosystem. Through thoughtful stewardship and environmental education, the community has become a pioneer in sustainable lodging and wildlife preservation, demonstrating how tourism and conservation can flourish together in harmony.
A highlight of this adventure is a serene navigation along the Lacantún River aboard a motor boat, gliding through calm waters framed by dense rainforest. As the boat moves gently along the current, the surrounding jungle reveals its wonders, from towering trees draped in vines to colorful birds soaring above the canopy. The rhythmic sounds of water and wildlife create a profound sense of connection with nature, allowing visitors to observe the flora and fauna in their natural habitat. This immersive journey offers more than scenic beauty; it provides insight into the ecological richness of the region and the importance of protecting it for future generations. By engaging with the community and exploring the river landscape, travelers gain a deeper appreciation of the delicate balance that sustains one of the most biodiverse areas in Mexico, leaving with lasting memories of both natural splendor and responsible travel.

Laguna Miramar is part of the Montes Azules biosphere. To reach this natural paradise, you will have to take a long journey. If you leave Comitán, it is 5 hours, approximately 2 and a half hours on the road, which is generally in good condition, and then it is 46 km. Dirt road that will take you approximately another 2 hours. You will arrive at the Emiliano Zapata town, where the managers will receive you. I leave you the prices of all the services. Afterwards it is another 2 hours of walking between pastures and jungle, if you are not in good physical condition, it can take you 3 hours of walking. The lagoon is always warm, very delicious indeed. It's not cold.
Beautiful place full of nature and cool views.
Nice place, interesting Mayan ruins and wild nature. Avoid San Javier and around. There are high prices, poor service and people want your money badly, you can feel bad aura averywhere. River there is contaminated with sewage from all hauses.
