Becan - 2000 - With no taxis or combis in sight, I started the walk toward Becan. Yes, just another crazy American going for a casual stroll in the middle of the hot Mexican afternoon. After a couple of kilometers, a woman from Canada drove by and offered me a ride in her air conditioned car. Thank you! She is building a resort called Rio Bec Dreams. You can see here website by using this link: Rio Bec Dreams. She had lots of tips on Becan and the surrounding area. She dropped me off in front of the short dirt road from Highway 186 to Becan. Becan is quite unique in that it is surrounded by a moat. There is possibly only one other Maya site with a moat. It is also quite a large site. Several sections were closed off for reconstruction.
