Akumal, the land of turtles awaits you to get involved in the biodiversity of the Mexican Caribbean A little proof of what the Riviera Maya can offer you in natural beauty, marine fauna and calm waters
120 kilometers from Cancun and just 30 minutes from Playa del Carmen is a spectacular and quiet bay with a length of 5 kilometers called Akumal, its transparent waters make easy the constant sighting of turtles, schools, manta rays and other aquatic beings that inhabit these waters
The respect of the flora, fauna and especially towards the turtles, is part of the culture in Akumal, they inhabited these beaches and waters thousands of years ago so they have habits recognized by all the locals, in the months of April and May spawn and in the months of July and August the beaches are covered with small traces of the offspring, whose instinct directs them in a furtive race towards the warm waters of the Mexican Caribbean. And although this alone would be a great reason to visit this place, there is much more to see and do.
