Akumal Beaches
Gifts of the Gods, as the Maya would say, Akumal’s beaches are beautiful both above and below water. There is a beach type for everyone. In addition to our beaches, there are many others, up and down the coast, all just 5-20 minutes from La Sirena. All are unique and each special.
Depending on the beach, there is great snorkeling, walking, wave playing, kite/wind surfing and of course great restaurants. There are so many that you can spend your entire time here, do nothing else, and yet not see them all!

Major Attractions
Akumal means “Place of the Turtle” in Maya, and is also home to Yal-Ku lagoon. Akumal sits in the center of the Mayan Riviera which is unique to having Cenotes and Mayan Ruins.
Cenotes are natural pits/caverns that provide access to a large underground river running beneath the Yucatan. Being the only sources of natural fresh water, these have been used for centuries and can be enjoyed today.
The Mayans were a dominant people who lived here for about 2000 years. Very sophisticated, they built many cities and temples, which are still being excavated. Akumal is very close to several major ones, making them easy to visit.
