Life jackets? I assume the water was warmish.
Rumors have it that it is also a popular weekend family retreat for the leaders of the cartels. As such it is reputed to be a ‘safe zone’, as the cartels do not want to hit met local businesses.
I never bought that line of thinking myself, so i have never gone there.
And a Minnesota couple has gone missing while curling in Austria on Labor Day.
Seriously: This is news?
I can’t imagine that a white American couple go missing in Mexico. That’s got to be a first.
why the hell anyone would go to mexico is beyond me... Last time I was there, cancun in ‘89, some of the natives looked at me like they would slash my throat. that was enough for me! never went back...
Here’s a suggestion: Stay the F*** out of Mexico and you won’t “go missing”.
SMDH.
I am fluent in Spanish , reading, writing, and speaking. I am also a pure, 100% Irish Catholic Caucasian. (I am a ‘person of color’ when I hold my breath a long time). I used to travel in all parts of Latin America. I felt comfortable in the large cities and small towns. I was still careful, as anyone should be as a stranger in a strange land. I even was able to participate in the Cuello archeology dig in Belize, before I learned that archeology cannot pay a mortgage. The Museum of Anthropology in Mexico is absolutely amazing. I no longer travel to Mexico, but if I did, I would definitely recommend that Museum. I sometimes read online information from Spain in Spanish to learn what they are reporting about Mexico. Some of the bus lines refuse to to serve certain areas, because of bandits and cartels, unless the army provides escort. The local people do not bring any cash, jewelry, or valuables on the bus. Sometimes gangs will stop the bus, make everyone get off, and then burn the bus, stranding all the passengers.
In Cancun, they advertise that certain areas are secure. I still don’t go because gangs have attacked areas of Cancun from the ocean.

Nowhere to kayak in Arizona?
You couldn’t pay me enough to go on vacation in Meheeco.
kayaking in Mexico is as safe as a midnight stroll in Chicago thinking isn’t used by everyone.
