OUR HISTORY

Mahahual_ecotours_Victor_Rosales_pineapple

Mahahual Ecotours, founded in November 2013 by Victor Rosales, leverages his 16 years of experience in the tourism industry. Victor, a seasoned Scuba Diving Instructor, traveled globally before returning to Mahahual with a deep appreciation for the Yucatan Peninsula’s charm. His mission: to showcase the best of Mexico to both residents and visitors.

Located on the Caribbean coast of Quintana Roo, Mahahual is a Hidden Gem of the Yucatan Peninsula with rich Maya heritage. Once a quiet fishing village, it has become a sanctuary for those escaping the busy tourist centers of Cancun, Playa del Carmen, and Tulum. Here, soft sandy beaches, lush jungles, and the stunning Mesoamerican Barrier Reef replace chain hotels and high-rises. Fresh fish and authentic Mexican cuisine are the norm. In Mahahual, you’ll find the perfect place to relax and disconnect.

For nature lovers, Mahahual is a dream destination. Whether you’re into birdwatching, snorkeling, scuba diving, jungle hikes, mangrove kayaking, or camping under Caribbean stars, Mahahual has it all.

Strategically located, it’s just 40 minutes from Bacalar, an hour from the Chacchoben ruins, and a bit over an hour to Xcalak, each offering unique adventures.

Mahahual Ecotours offers day tours for short visits and customizable multi-day expeditions for a true ‘back to nature’ experience.
