Magical Town
Isla Aguada
Mornings here begin on the pier, where the fishermen get ready to go in search of what the lake has to offer. The seagulls arrive, and the frigate birds fly just above the boats. In the distance, the dolphins jump, spraying water as they go. In this island town, the windows begin to open and the first wafts of breakfast smells make themselves known.

Why You Should Go
Santuario Natural de Delfines de la Laguna de Términos
- This is a lake ecosystem, unique in the world because of the fact that bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) are born and live all their lives here.
- The important presence of these dolphins throughout the year make sightings here a very special spectacle.
- On a clear water day, you can spot more than one hundred dolphins.
- Apart from dolphins, there are also shrimps, mullets, dogfish and even manatees living under the surface.
At the Very Least
Climb aboard a boat heading towards the sanctuary to witness the spectacle of bottlenose dolphins.
