The flamingos of Celestún are a beautiful part of a fragile ecosystem. When you go to see them, we encourage you totreat the birds and their surroundings with respect so that they will be able to continue breeding and living there. Sometimes a guide, in order to show the tourist a good time, will attempt to get tooclose to the flamingos. This has a very negative effect on these exotic birds and you should encourage your guide to stay at a healthy distance. And, please don't ask them to get closer if they arestaying away.
