COBAS 389 | Lagoon Front Development Land in Bacalar

Two thousand seven hundred seventy five square meters fronting the Bacalar lagoon, four kilometers from the municipal center and steps from downtown. This is a clean, buildable parcel with the paperwork already done: escritura in hand, soil mechanics study complete, topographic survey complete, property tax paid current, and an updated cedula catastral. The lot sits between Prolongación Costero Sur and the federal lagoon zone, with 24.98 meters of lagoon frontage and a depth running just over 111 meters.

Zoning and Build Potential

The parcel carries ZTA classification under the Bacalar urban development program, which permits national and international tourism use alongside private or alternative residential development. Approved project types include concept hotels, vacation rental villas, glamping, and holistic centers. Density allows 15 rooms per hectare or 8 dwellings per hectare. Maximum height is two levels or 8 meters. CUS 1.00 and COS 30 percent.

Federal Zone Note

Ten meters of ZOFEMAT federal maritime land sit in front of the property. This strip can be cleared, maintained, and used for decking. No ZOFEMAT concession has been granted on this parcel to date. Buyers should note that federal zone land remains public by law and access cannot be legally restricted, though in practice this is uncommon in the area. A concession application is the standard route for owners seeking formal rights over the strip.

Access and Services

Dirt road access at 200 meters. Electric service 100 meters from the property line. There is no municipal water in the area; a well is viable on the parcel. Direct lagoon access from the frontage.

The Setting

Bacalar's Laguna de los Siete Colores draws travelers for water that shifts from pale turquoise to deep indigo across the day. The town has grown steadily as a slower alternative to the Riviera Maya coast, and lagoon front land at this size and this proximity to the center is limited by simple geography. The shoreline is finite and most of what remains at scale sits well outside the urban core.
