Riviera

Vacation Rental Beach Condos |

Akumal is a small beach-front
tourist resort community 100 km (62 miles) south of Cancún, between
the towns of Playa del Carmen and Tulum in the state of Quintana Roo, Mexico.
Akumal means "place of the turtles" in the Mayan language. The town was
officially founded in 1958 as a community for scuba divers by Pablo Bush
Romero--a Mexican businessman, diver, writer, historian, and archaeologist.
The fine white sandy beaches at Akumal Bay and Half Moon Bay are ideal
for swimming and snorkeling. Turtles can be found in Akumal laying eggs
on the beaches at night throughout the nesting season (April to July) or
swimming in the main Bay during the day. Hatching season runs from September
to November, coinciding with hurricane season. This translates to big losses
in the turtle population. Many environmental associations are settled in
the Akumal area, including the Akumal Ecological Center (officially "Centro
Ecologico Akumal" or CEA). Akumal is the site of several Spanish
galleon shipwrecks. One of the most notable stories of the area is of Gonzalo
Guerrero, a seaman from Palos who was shipwrecked at Akumal and taken hostage
and went on to marry a Mayan Princess and begin the first "mestizoss" (Euro-Americans).
