LAS COLORADAS PINK LAKE - Mexico

Hidden away on the tip of Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula is a magical place full of color, the stunning cotton-candy pink lakes of Las Coloradas. We jumped in to go swimming with a flamingo!
UPDATE: Swimming in the pink lakes around the factory is now off-limits. However you can still book tours from Rio Lagartos that visit a different section away from the factory where it’s possible to float in the pink water: shrsl.com/?h4g6

Fu*k sick man! I'm from Mexico City, in February I'll be there celebrating my girlfriend's birthday! What month you were there guys? The Pink is dope! 😎

[@GettingStamped]

Love it! How windy was it when you were there? The footage from the drone is amazing. It was crazy windy when we visited sadly...and our drone was still in "jail" in the Czech Republic.

[@13nightclaw13]

Is this dude still alive

[@mina-zv1ov]

No

[@peeweecoco]

Yes, of course he is still alive. They actually just had a baby boy

[@13nightclaw13]

@Cutie orbs Broski. You're dumb for not adding in the " 're " at the end of you. And you also didn't spell dumb right, so how are you in ANY place to say that lol

[@13nightclaw13]

@Cutie orbs You obviously don't understand what sarcasm or a joke is lol this comment wasn't serious.

[@13nightclaw13]

@Cutie orbs Btw fix your grammar, kid.

[@kerle.reisen]

spektakulär 🤩

[@stephanietriantafillou6058]

i liked it

[@jessicamermaid2438]

Your videos are so awesome that I don't understand why you don't do 15-30 minute videos. I can only imagine how popular they would be and the revenue you could generate.

[@johnannplotado2933]

Oh my I am afraid to dive because its so beautiful.

[@CabanCondosMexico]

Yucatan our home ❤️

[@lilromance95]

Very nice It is similar to the pink lakes in Australia

[@jirachithemyth8438]

*Doesn’t It Have Bacteria, Fungi, And Microorganisms? That turns it into that pink color. Algae too*

[@polar-east]

Perfect for movie fantasy casting xD

[@lilromance95]

Australia has pink lakes too Your video is awesome

[@jairobaez1288]

woooo¡¡¡ love the video matt, thanks for sharing it, what drone did you use for this video?

[@angelherrera4185]

wow so beautiful,,,question they told me that no one is allawd to sweem or to get into the colorada lake...what did you said

[@ESTANTIQUEJUNKIECLASSICCateyed]

Absolutely Gorgeous. Top of bucket list to see some pink beaches & flamingos. Cool Yall had a pink flamingo with you. What or where is the best place to stay in Mexico around this? Thanks

[@ANY2287]

New subscriber !! 🤗🤗🤗

[@pitbull62]

great videos! what camera do you use when videoing? i dont mean the drone camera. thanks and keep up the good work!

[@DoriMena]

Really Nice video, Im going there this weekend and was looking for Ideas for my video. Any tips on that place?

[@Yoh59730]

wow such great video ! i would love to bring my drone too to Yucatan...But a question..No problem at the aerport ? No extra taxes to enter it ?

[@mikejohnston526]

So so awesome! On your blog it said swimming in the lakes is now off-limits. I am heading here in a month. Can you still walk right next to the lakes and dip your feet in? How is the no swimming enforced? it's such a big area

[@postcard2614]

good job. i subscribe

[@greenman8557]

Love the added views from the drone, good investment!

[@defaltthedilf2248]

I've been there :3

[@isidromartinezpaz9147]

Saludos desde Yucatan, for your nexr visit try going homun lagoon (Yalahau)

[@bradleeDaintumn13]

you are amazing! I've read up on your how to start travel Blogging blogs and I'm going to seriously try! you have me the motivation I need thank you! Maybe our paths will cross and I can thank you in person!!!!

[@andreaandrea8728]

is the entire lake shallow? does anything live in it?

[@contentlocked99]

Is it slimy? I heard the lake in Australia feels "thick" when you swim in it due to the salt content and how boueyancy works

[@MackenzieStithh]

How itchy was your skin after getting in it. I once went ankle deep in the great salt lake and itched like crazy for the rest of the day.

[@melaniepreciado1649]

Expert Vagabond i found out that lake is not safe their is a lot of germs but really cool video

[@MMikeYYoung]

If you itched like crazy you probably got crabs bro.

[@juuzou5086]

Yeah cuz of the algae and fungi

[@tomasparys5588]

Epic cuts! Can you tell me how you did it?

[@sarahhernandez2081]

Hey Matt, beautiful video and place! I would love to visit it! How did that salty water feel in your skin and eyes? Would you recommend to take a dip in that water?

[@sarahhernandez2081]

Awesome, I'll add it to my wishlist for next year! Keep enjoying your wonderful trips! :)

[@HMSnape]

What Song did you use?? I love it

[@marinas5109]

Was it any painful for your skin? How did in feel after swimming in salt?

[@mytransfusion458]

i love that music track man! where did you sample it?

[@KeithEades]

Cool location, think you need to check out Aotearoa (New Zealand)

[@greenman8557]

DREAMY - I wonder if there are any sting rays on the floor of the pink ponds; is the pink water is good for the skin; does it get any deeper than ankle deep. Didn't see another soul in sight in the video, not even from the aerial drone...ahhhh....so surreal, so relaxing

[@danielilic7133]

Nice Shots 🙌🏻 Where (rental Company) have you rented the Jeep Wrangler Unlimited? Cheers ☺️

[@carriltours5646]

Visit las coloradas Yucatan México ❤

[@ritika1685]

[@weenaooresposito3576]

[@lexa8702]

I hope it's safe to swim & play in.

[@gerardo_may]

Las Coloradas, Río Lagartos, Yucatán.

[@Rio.340]

So this is where pepto bismals from!!!

[@choilizxy1559]

[@MidnightDuo]

can anyone help im trying to find the Mexican band that filmed here i cant seem to find the bands name but they filmed here i think for there music video

[@jomiyoooohhho8800]

There's the Halophiles!!

[@jomiyoooohhho8800]

They love salty environment

[@mitziymilla3464]

Hey do you know there was a germs

[@sofixmasnahxd]

Fuck!! Those shots were unreal!!

[@mariskysuerto9063]

SOFIA SILVA V. no its real!

[@taylorgibbons2071]

great video!! when is the best time of day to visit las coloradas? I hear the lake isn't always pink?

[@emmaaguila4502]

Very beautiful! Thanks for sharing with the world the magic places you can find in Mexico. Wish you lots of success! It was a pleasure to meet you.

[@aussiemaarten]

Very cool! Why is it pink?

[@kramsey3075]

Maarten van Geene Its pink dye.... They colored the water on purpose

[@GeorgeAlmarazGTI]

K Ann that is impossible to do 🤦‍♂️

[@kramsey3075]

Sexy Viner No people take dye packets and color of their big lakes and ponds all the time. There are videos on KZbin tube. One dye packet covers a lot of area once it starts traveling through the water. Throw a bunch by boat and you cover an entire area as far as the eye can see.

[@kramsey3075]

Sexy Viner its all fake. Done purposely

[@GeorgeAlmarazGTI]

K Ann I'm from México and I know better than you that is all natural, it is impossible to keep the water "pink" all the time 24/7 with artificial colors.

[@HealthyFoodBae_]

Love ur vids Wat do u do for a career

[@HealthyFoodBae_]

Expert Vagabond omg nice!!

[@ylmg89]

Can I please share your video on my blog?
