A one hour drive from Merida is the city of Celestun on the shores of the Gulf of Mexico. Here we will take a boat ride out in the shallow marsh and through the mangrove trees to see the flamingoes. Celestun is the winter home to more than 18,000 flamingoes, representing North America’s only mainland flamingo population. The Celestun Estuary serves as the main feeding area for the pink American flamingo and many more graceful bird species like Osprey, Cormorant and Frigates.http://www.yucatantoday.com/destinations/eng-celestun.htm
