Monkey reserve – Punta Laguna
The Punta Laguna reserve was created in 1986. But the fight for the protection of this jungle began earlier in the 1930’s when a Maya “Chicleros” called Ignacio Canul founded a village here. In the 1980’s Three of Mr. Ignacio Canul’s sons decided to take administrative steps to protect the natural habitat of the Spider Monkeys and the Howling Monkeys that live in the area.
They have formed a cooperative that allows the inhabitants of the village to earn an income which supplements their traditional way of life. It is with great pleasure that I will take you to visit this reserve to discover its inhabitants (animals), while enjoying the various activities that are on offer:
- Zip line
- Crossing the lagoon by canoe
- Discover the secrets of the cenote after passing through the
- Mayan purification ceremony.
