*More about Mahahual:
Mahahual is a small, beautiful, fishing village located in the southern Yucatan Peninsula close to the border with Belize. The beach club where we stay has private bungalows and murals, artifacts from around the world and thoughtful, magical touches everywhere.-Lodging is included for 6 nights and is double occupancy unless you'd like to upgrade to your own bungalow. There is a restaurant on site and beach side service. Beach chairs/umbrellas provided. Small pool as well.Flip flops/barefoot is required foot gear. ;)- loads of dining options from higher end to really local casual/delicious. There are a couple of dance venues and a weekly, amazing beach dance. Massage therapists provide massages right on the beach. Yoga classes can be taken, there are snorkeling and scuba diving trips as well.

Mahahual is yet to be fully "discovered," and will be soon! So now is a great time to go!

-A delicious Breakfast is provided at the Beach Club each day.
We regroup morning of the 3rd, (and each morning ) following breakfast, to dive into plein air painting and map out the rest of the week! In part, the week will be co-created and feel free to share your suggestions and specifics you would like to explore in terms of painting, drawing, creativity.
Structured time revolves around the art workshops in the morning with afternoons/evenings open to do what you please yourself, with others, etc...One delicious planned group dinner in Mahahual, prepared by a wonderful Italian chef at his hostel! Also a day trip to the sacred Laguna Bacalar.

  • Group private transport to return to Cancun the morning of the 8th of March. (of course, if you choose to stay longer or go elsewhere that is an option) and there is a Meso American Reef Day, celebrated by Mexico, Honduras, Guatemala & Belize on March 8!

Let me know if interested! Please share with your circles! Reserve your spot by December 10!
