Not nice. Have fun vacationing in Kansas.


There is a lot of Caribbean that is neither Mexico nor Kansas. But enjoy your tainted alcohol and corrupt law enforcement in Mexico!

Last time we were at the lagoon we were enjoying langostas at Lorenzillo’s, seated right over the water where the crocodiles underneath for scraps were part of the show. Why would any child be anywhere near there?! Not surprising it didn’t end well.

You know Mexico is an entire country, right?

Huh. When I was there years ago this is where we water skiied every day. Is that no longer the case?


You likely did not water ski on the lagoon! There’s several different bodies of water there. The lagoon has the signs although it is not fenced off.

This is how crocodiles hunt. They drag their prey into the water to drown them.

That's super scary. If I were there, I could see not even thinking about it much.

Never swim in freshwater that far south.

A child was attacked by a crocodile in a lagoon at the Cancun Club Med, and the child lost a leg. Beware of any fresh water swimming in Mexico.
A fb group that I am in discussed a separate crocodile attack at this resort in summer 2021.
