Boulevard Bahía, Chetumal
The seaside boulevard in Chetumal, capital of Quintana Roo state. It runs along Chetumal Bay, lined with sculptures, a lighthouse and seafood stalls, with Belize just across the water.
Chetumal is the state capital on the border between Mexico and Belize. Boulevard Bahía runs several kilometers along Chetumal Bay and is where locals stroll and bike in the evenings. Along the way are commemorative sculptures, a small lighthouse, seafood stalls and cafés. Nearby are the Bay Museum and the City Museum. The water here is murky and unsuitable for swimming, but the boulevard offers the atmosphere of a Caribbean border city. You can also stop at the duty-free zone on the Belize border to shop. It is about 40 minutes from Bacalar by car.
