AKUMAL. Q. Roo
Akumal is a quiet beachside town about 20 minutes South of Playa del Carmen. Akumal, which means “place of turtles” is a favorite spot for expats, repeat vacationers, and people that want a more laid back time. Whether you are a diver, snorkeler, fisher, nature lover, or beach goer, you will appreciate Akumal’s relaxed Caribbean vibe. Akumal has a strong environmental presence and is a protected sea turtle breeding ground. Like other destinations on Mexico’s Caribbean coastline, Akumal has a master plan that is bracing for a continued increase in population. With the proposed Riviera Maya International Airport and the city’s master plan, Akumal will continue to grow in a sustained and responsible manner. There are hidden bays, inlets, cenotes (underwater caves), and beautiful white sand beaches throughout Akumal that lure the curious traveler off the hotel and tourists zones.
