Come enjoy the world's most spectacular aquarium: Xel-Há, a nature lover's paradise.

Embark on an aquatic adventure. Explore creeks, lagoons, natural wells and ancient caves fed by subterranean rivers flowing to Mexico's beautiful Caribbean Sea Xel-Há Park is a living invitation to enjoy nature first hand and explore the legends of an ancient culture; the Maya.   Our goal is the creation of an organized leisure environment that promotes the appreciation and understanding of the natural world. Ecology plays a key role in sustainable natural parks.   For us, a health respect for nature is the base of all our projects.    By protecting the Parks naturally occurring habitats, working efficiently and in cooperation with natural systems, we can achieve a sustainable system.

Our mission is to respect the balance of nature and to maintain the balance between aquatic flora and fauna.   By eliminating pollution and predation we can create ‘safe’ habitats that promote growth in some cases blocking access to areas completely to encourage fish species reproduction.    Our educational programs and studies are linked to national and international studies. The mission does not end at the Park.   Regional issues include habitat destruction, pollution, deforestation and loss of traditional values and culture within Mayan communities. 

Protection and production are the watchword for the Garden Program at Xel-Há.   Lowland tropical forest, dominates the park, represented by kuku or Caribbean palms, zapote, and black and white chechen trees.   Over 350 species are present. Of these plants a number flower year round.   The Nursery is well marked, making it easy for visitors to learn about the plants names, traditional and current uses, etc.   We feel this is very important to provide this learning forum.
