Birdwatching Tour – Uxuxubi Nature Reserve
Escape the crowds and discover one of the Riviera Maya's best kept secrets on this professionally guided birdwatching tour operated by Amar Aves, the specialist birdwatching division of Mexico Kan Tours.
Located in Akumal, between Playa del Carmen and Tulum, Uxuxubi is a privately protected nature reserve where ecotourism directly supports the conservation of approximately 30,000 acres (12,000 hectares) of tropical forest. With nearly 275 bird species recorded, it has become one of the finest destinations for birdwatching in the Riviera Maya.
Unlike many popular nature attractions, Uxuxubi offers peaceful forest trails with very few visitors, allowing you to experience the sounds of the jungle and observe wildlife at a relaxed pace. This quiet atmosphere makes every encounter with birds even more memorable.
Our morning is spent exploring a variety of tropical forest habitats in search of many of the Yucatán Peninsula's most representative species. Depending on the season, we may encounter Ocellated Turkey, Lesson's and Turquoise-browed Motmots, Keel-billed Toucan, Collared Aracari, White-fronted and Yucatán Amazons, Black-headed, Gartered and Collared Trogons, woodcreepers, woodpeckers, hummingbirds, and many other forest specialists.
Beyond its exceptional birdlife, Uxuxubi is also an outstanding destination for observing butterflies, orchids, bromeliads, reptiles, and other wildlife that thrive within this healthy tropical ecosystem. Every visit contributes directly to the reserve's long-term conservation efforts.
Before returning to your hotel, we enjoy a delicious local breakfast, bringing to a close a peaceful morning surrounded by the remarkable biodiversity of the Riviera Maya.
