Chankanaab lagoon may have once been occupied by Mayan settlements, or was perhaps a refuge for pirates hiding treasures.
The name comes from the Mayan language; Chan (small) Kanaab (sea or ocean). You won't see another lagoon like this anywhere in the world. Its beauty is undeniable. |
 Relax on Chankanaab's white sands. |
