Why go

This activity used to be widely enjoyed by Mexicans and it used to be one of the more authentic tourist experiences available. Nowadays, however, locals no longer consider it a nice experience because of the decay. The water quality, environmental health, and size of the canal system has declined due to overuse of groundwater, illegally built homes along the canals, and even attempts to fill or block some of the canals.
