The unique Rio Lagartos River is located in the very north of the Yucatan Peninsula! There live all year round 216 species of birds and breed their young pink flamingos! There are crocodiles in mangras and there are many fish. And there are also the most significant deposits of salt! Salt from the Yucatan Peninsula was valued more than gold and the Maya traded salt with their neighbors and even carried salt in canoes far beyond the Yucatan, they knew 12 sea routes, said merchants reached modern Haiti (Hispaniola). The pyramids of salt sparkle in the sun and even blind your eyes. And these unique, the only salty pink lakes in the world?! it seems that the sun has settled in them! Salt is many times greater than the Dead Sea. The Maya believed that the sun god gave salt.
