Active Nature is located right at Villas Ecotucan, a small ecological resort 5 km north of the town of Bacalar at km. 27.3 on Highway 307, Chetumal - Cancun.
You can take a taxi from Bacalar or coming by Mayab (second class bus), the driver can drop you off at the turnoff 27.3 and from here it is only 1 km to the entrance.

Stranded in paradise, that’s basically the beginning of Active Nature.
After living 5 years in the United States we left North Carolina in May 2005 to start our long planned trip along the Panamerican Highway that should take about 2 to 3 years. We drove all the way up North to Alaska and spend 1 1/2 year traveling in North America until we reached the Caribbean. At that point we started to have a major problem with our engine, so we didn’t want to risk anything by continuing on our route. So we had to think about a solution and that’s when we decided to stay for a while and do something here, then we found this beautiful place here at the Laguna Bacalar and wanted to discover it and NOW we want YOU to discover it.

We look forward seeing you in paradise!
