With the crystal blue waters and beautiful marine life, Akumal snorkeling can be a wonderful adventure. Akumal features two bays that are perfect for snorkeling or diving. Akumal bay and Half Moon Bay are the perfect places to experience snorkeling.
Yalku Lagoon is also another wonderful place for swimming and snorkeling because of its calm waters. For more snorkelers who want the premium snorkeling experience, there are snorkeling boats (some have glass bottoms) which will take you out to prime snorkeling areas that cannot be reached easily. In some cases, all you'll have to do is step out of one of the Akumal villas to go snorkeling.
Snorkeling Safety Tips
The most important thing to remember when snorkeling is to take note of your environment before you jump in the water. Is the water clear? Are there rocks? How deep is the water? You should also be wary of currents if you are snorkeling in an area that doesn't not have calm waters.
When you rent your snorkel gear, make sure you inquire about the area you will be snorkeling in. These rental shops can provide you with a lot of information if you are new to the area. They can warn you about deep waters, rocks, or marine life that you should be careful of.
