Travel With Yaxche Maya Cuisine

Yaxche Maya Cuisine is planning trips into the world of the Maya for the upcoming year. Take a look at photos from a recent excursion to Chiapas and contact us for details about future trips.

Yal Ku Lagoon, Akumal

Akumal is south of Playa del Carmen, on the main highway before you reach Tulum. There are several entrances, but the main one is the first "Akumal" you come to on the left when driving south. The sign says "Club Akumal Caribe" and "Akumal Beach."

Turn left after you pass under the security arches and keep going on the main road. Drive past Las Buena Vida Restaurant to the end of the Akumal road. You have to pay to get in (fees go toward keeping the lagoon clean), but the cove is calm and a decent place to snorkel. Bring water and snacks since there isn't a store or restaurant yet.
