About Isla Aguada
Isla Aguada is a fishing town at the tip of the Palmar Peninsula in Campeche, with the Gulf of Mexico on one side and the Laguna de Términos on the other. Visitors come for boat trips to watch the bottlenose dolphins that live in the lagoon all year and to see the seabirds that crowd Isla de los Pájaros. The old Porfirian lighthouse now holds a small museum of underwater archaeology, and a long bridge links the town to Isla del Carmen.
