I tried another new activity while on vacation in Mexico today...swimming with crocodiles. I know what you are saying, there aren't crocodiles in Mexico, are there? That's what I said. I have swam in the very same place 2 years ago. I heard the locals warn us of these crocs, but I assumed they would be tiny and not really an issue. Well, today we learned otherwise.
The Good News: Hot tip from local spear fisherman.
The Bad News: Hiked out to a remote beach near a river mouth to spear fish with My father n -in- law. Spent 1 hour peering through murky water looking for game fish. Couldn't even see my outstretched hand... Never saw a single fish. Pretty spooky.
The Good News: The murky water made it just as tough for the indigenous crocodiles to see us. Yep apparently the area is a sanctuary for 800 crocodiles.... big ones. The ones we saw on our drive out were 10-12 ft. We saw multiple in the water later that afternoon! Yolo!?!
And yes the tacos are to die for here!
Even a tiny crocodile is probably not what you want to mess with. Glad you aren't in prison...probably would have helped you lose 10 extra pounds.
