Akumal means “Place of turtles” in Mayan, and it's perfect! Every year, hundreds of green turtles come here to feed.
Swimming with sea turtles in Akumal is a magical experience: they are in their natural habitat and swim freely among the visitors.
The Mesoamerican reef off Tulum and Akumal is the second largest in the world: home to thousands of species.
Tulum was a Mayan walled city and one of the few archaeological sites by the Caribbean Sea, a living postcard!
Turtles return to lay their eggs on the same beach where they were born, some return to Akumal after traveling thousands of kilometers!
