Picnic at Sisal Bocana

This day trip from Mérida heads to the port of Sisal, on the Yucatán coast, for a picnic by the sea and a mix of water activities. The operator describes the area as a place where sea, lagoon and a clear cenote connect, offering three different types of water within one route.

The core of the outing is the route along the river, a stretch of about 15 kilometers. Along it you can watch fish, birds and the typical vegetation of the place, take a private boat ride in Sisal or paddle a kayak among the mangroves. The itinerary also mentions a refreshing swim in the cenote, and the included activities list swimming in a freshwater spring, so bring a swimsuit.

The day is listed as lasting about 360 minutes. It ends with a picnic by the sea and time to enjoy the beaches of the area, which the operator calls wonderful. The source does not give a detailed timetable, so ask for the departure time when you book.
