About this experience

The TOH Nature Reserve, a privately-owned sanctuary, has been gaining recognition among birdwatchers thanks to its ideal location near Cancun, Playa del Carmen, and Tulum. Its close proximity makes it an excellent option for birding enthusiasts staying in the Riviera Maya who are looking for a nearby nature experience without venturing too far.

With over 170 bird species recorded, the reserve offers a rewarding opportunity to observe a wide variety of birds in their natural habitat. Depending on the time of year, visitors can expect to spot anywhere from 40 to 70 different species during a single outing.

What sets TOH apart is not only its biodiversity but also the ease of access—it’s just a short drive from many accommodations in the region. Whether you’re a seasoned birder or simply curious about the local wildlife, TOH is a destination well worth exploring.
