Akumal Bay is one of THE best places to snorkel in the Riviera Maya (Akumal Bay means “bay of turtles”). While the bay has undergone some procedural changes since 2017 with stricter access, snorkeling, and tour regulations, anyone can see Mother Nature’s bounty without taking a tour. If you want to be right on the bay, the two all-inclusive resort options are Secrets Akumal and Akumal Bay Beach and Wellness Resort.. If you are staying somewhere else, you can rent a car and drive to Akumal, take a cab into Akumal, or take a colectivo to Akumal and walk from the highway dropoff into Akumal–the beach is just a short walk from the town of Akumal. If not staying at a nearby condo or all-inclusive resort on the bay, it will cost you about $5 p/p to enter the beach area.
