There seems to be a number of these statements with people speaking of "opening and closing" the lagoon. It happens naturally when the water gets too high and breaches the sand that is built up on the beach. The thing that is different here compared to Boca is the fact that we add a road across the inlet that causes the water to be higher when it breaches. This is why there is such a large drop in the water level, again as compared to Boca or Melaque or other natural lagoons. Even before they put in the road every year, the breach closes because of the buildup of sand. The water stinks because of the decay of the vegetation. The water is tea colored
