What to expect
Akumal, or “place of the turtles”
This is the translation of the name of the bay where green sea turtles of the Tortuga verde species live. In this picturesque place, you will spend time snorkeling, swimming in the azure waters of the harbor, and relaxing on the beach with soft white sand. During the underwater journey, besides the turtles themselves, you will see many tropical fish, corals of all imaginable kinds - and fully appreciate the richness of the world's second largest coral reef. During snorkeling, you will be accompanied by a specialist who will help you not to miss the most interesting and beautiful episodes of the Caribbean underwater life.
Tankah Eco-Park - visiting a Mayan village
Here you will meet not so many travelers as in other popular places in the Yucatan, so the beauty and authenticity of the park will appear in the most natural way. You will visit a Mayan village and get acquainted with the carefully preserved traditions of life and culture of the people. You will visit three cenotes, where you will hear about ancient sacred legends, and, if desired, swim in magical reservoirs and paddle in a canoe. Also, on the complex's territory, you can jump from a tarzan rope and fly on zip lines.
🥘 The program also includes a real Mayan lunch and a tasting of organic tequila.
