Travel and transport agencies Lago De Pátzcuaro

This is the nicest side of the lake, where the boats are only used by the inhabitants of the islands of Yunuen, Pacanda and Tecuena. Don't insist, we won't give you the price of the inhabitants... The advantage is that you can decide how much time you want to spend on each island (usually 45 minutes to 1 hour to go around the Pacanda) and a little longer if you want to have breakfast or lunch in Yunuen at one of the fish restaurants around (prior reservation required during the week).

This is where most of the boats depart for Janitzio, which is quiet on weekdays and crowded on weekends, vacations and the Feast of the Dead. The crossing takes about twenty-five minutes. From here, you can also take boats to visit the islands of Yuñuen and La Pacanda, although the pier on the other side of the lake is quieter and allows you to spend less time on the boat. Just 5 minutes away is the San Pedrito pier (calle Las Americas), which also serves Janitzio.
