Chula Vista, CA · Mexico

My friend and i were leaving his house, only a few miles away from the US/Mexico border. I looked out over Mexico as we were driving down the street and saw a large silver object just hovering over what i presume to be the Tijuana area. We stopped the car and looked, my friend wrote it off as a large bird. Upon resuming our drive, while i kept an eye on the object. After passing a tree, the skies were clear. I leaned out the window to look in all directions, but the object was gone. The object appeared to be disc shaped, with a definite metallic color and shine to it. To me, it appeared silver. I've end was lighter, almost white against the sky, and the usually hazy air was clean around the object. It was hovering in an area i have never seen any aircraft in before.

Yucatan (Mexico) · Mexico

While traveling in Mexico in the highway 180D in the Yucatan Peninsula I was taking pictures of the landscape, I never notice anything unusual. After I came back from my trip, I download the pictures to my laptop and organize in folders. While checking them I notice something unusual in one of the pictures. It looks like a dark sphere traveling over the tree line in the opposite direction . I double check all the pics of that part of the road, that “thing” appears in only one of my photos- the more I look at it, the more I wonder what is that…

Quintana Roo-Playa del Carmen (Mexico) · Mexico

On our first night at an all-inclusive resort in the Mayan Riviera, about 30 min south of Cancun, I was walking back from dinner with my wife and 17 year old daughter about 150 yards from the beach, and looked up to notice the incredibly clear night sky and brilliant stars. I immediately noticed, looking up toward direct south at about 45 degrees, a group, like stars, of three to four small white lights (about 3-4 inches across at end of arm's length) tilted like a flattened arrowhead, silently moving-streaking in a straight line at a very high rate of speed from east-northeast (about 2:30) to west-southwest (about 8:30). I jumped and pointed stating "did you see that!" to my wife, and my daughter responded immediately "yes, I saw that". Her description is that she only saw a strange "grouping of light". I think like most I have tried to find some explanation but it was the "speed" and clarity in geometric design which! I cannot rationalize. I saw it with my arm strecthed up at approx. 45 deg SE until it disappeared in the SW in less than one second. I only noticed the lights, no structured material or color, and sensed its altitude low, maybe 1000ft., but who knows? Witness indicates that the date is approximate. PD

Los Altos (Mexico) · Mexico

My one daughter ran inside and my other daughter and i stayed and watched. It seemed to be going very slow for a minute. We were amazed and terrified this was not natural. We cried. Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD

Mexico (volcano) · Mexico

On the weather channel today, they showed footage of a volcano erupting and during the minute or more was a stationary "saucer" [?] that also resembled a dash mark with a round bulb on the top and bottom center. I would guess that it wasn't a drone due to extreme lack of movement. I punched record on my dvr, and can probably record that to dvd disc if you like. Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD

Acapulco (Mexico) · Mexico

I was the only one still awake in our beachside apartment in Acapulco, Mexico. It was 3:00AM on the dot and I was in the bathroom, getting ready for bed. I opened the window to let the warm ocean breeze in and was very surprised to see what I at first thought was a very beautiful moon in the clear, dark sky! I stood at the window, watching the object-- it was a very large circle that was emitting bright orange light. I realized quickly that it couldn't be the moon for several reasons: it was much bigger (about twice the size of a full moon), it was a full circle (the moon was a waxing gibbous at the time), and it made no sense for the moon to be positioned there at this time (my bedroom faces in the direction in which the moon rises-- at 3AM, the moon would not be so close to that part of the horizon.) It began moving downwards at a steady pace (faster than I've ever seen the moon move) so I reached for my phone to take a picture before it was hidden behind the mountains. I did take a photo and it is visible there, although it's terrible quality because I took it with an iPhone 5 at nighttime. I wanted to see if I could get a better picture, so I went to grab my mom's professional camera. I stepped away for maybe 3 minutes tops, and when I came back, the object was completely gone. I didn't think too much of it past a curious, "I wonder what that was!" and didn't talk about I again until I mentioned it casually to a friend 2 days later and they informed me that that's not an uncommon description for UFO sightings. I honestly can't think of any other logical explanation-- I've never seen anything like that before! I am an 18 year old student who was vacationing in Mexico at the time.

Cabo San Lucas (Baja California)(Mexico) · Mexico

While watching fireworks on the roof, I noticed a strange light coming from the horizon. I watched the light for several minutes until it zipped off to the west. More lights came from the same general direction. Over the next few minutes. One came directly toward me and then banked to the west. I tried to capture it on my phone. But all I got was a blank picture

Tijuana (Mexico) · Mexico

They all disappeared in about 10 minutes getting smaller until could not be seeing any more.

Ensenada (Mexico) · Mexico

First, I'd like to explain why I put "N/A" for number of witnesses. My family and I were on vacation in Ensenada, Mexico. I got some footage, and 8 days later I uploaded it onto my laptop. I noticed something strange and saw the 'sighting' (which I'll describe in a moment) Seeing how quick it happened, I'm pretty convinced no one else saw it, and even if they did, it was either a native person to the city or a tourist-both of which I have no way of contacting. The sighting: The video shows two 'blobs' of light separately. They then move rapidly towards each other in a flash and join in one huge flash and disappear. It didn't appear to be aircraft (human made) so the only other option (besides the UFO theory) would be something astronomy related. I'm not knowledgable in that area, so it may or may not be legit. I'll try to provide the video since my description isn't quite good.

Puerto Aventuras and Tulum (Mexico) · Mexico

First off, my incident happened in June 19, 2014, at approx. 4am, while visiting a resort in Puerto Aventuras, Mexico. My husband and I were asleep in our king size bed, we sleep very close together. However, it felt like a dream. I woke up on the far left side of the bed, with a grey type alien at the foot end of the bed, probing around my stomach area. My body was very heavy, it took all I had to lift my arm towards my husband. I didn’t feel any pain, but I remember being so scared and trying to scream and reach for my husband. I couldn’t open my mouth to scream so I was screaming with my mouth closed and my husband was out of my reach, which is extremely unusual for us to be so far apart. That is all that I remember, but when I actually woke up, I opened my eyes and reached for my hubby and he was out of my reach and I was at the far side of the bed. Later that day, we went to Tulum, Mexico. We were taking alot of pictures, as my camera shoots 7 frames per second. When we got home after reviewing our pictures closer, we realized that we believe we got a picture of the UFO. It is only in one frame and it is almost in the middle of the frame. I blew it off as a bird, but it is not in any other pictures. The more I look at it, the more I think it is a UFO. There were also other sightings in the Playa Del Carmen, Mexico, area in that same week, which is only 20 minutes from where we were.
