Xcaret - Butterfly Pavilion
Be sure to visit the Butterfly Pavilion and the Tropical Reef aquarium. According to Xcaret, "Xcaret's Butterfly Pavilion is the first butterfly breeding facility in Mexico. The structure is 49 feet high and has nearly 38,000 sq. ft. of free flying space, the largest butterfly facility in the world. It features only regional species native of the Yucatan peninsula in their natural habitats and its caretakers work diligently with some 5,000 butterflies in an intensive breeding program for 20 endemic species."
