X-CACEL CARIBBEAN BEACH-MAYAN RIVIERA MEXICO April 27
Along the coast in the Mayan Riviera you can also find many nice hidden beaches that not many people know about, perhaps only the locals. One of these is a beach called x-cacel. this beach is located between Playa del Carmen andTulum. It’s located right next to the town of Akumal. It’s kind of hard to find this beach because there is no sign for it, but if you ask some of the locals at Akumal, they will be able to tell you where it is.
the reason why I recommend this beach is because it is always empty. you can have a nice picnic with your family right on the beach. You can also swim and it’s pretty safe even for the kids. If you like to snorkle this is a good place to do it beacuse the reef is not to far from the shore. If you are fortunate, you might be able to see some turtles or sting rays, but for sure you will be able to see lots of colorful fish.
There is also a season when the turtles come to hatch and if you come at night, you can help the authorities guarding the beach to release the baby turtles into the sea.
There is also a nice “cenote” or fresh water natural pool where you can go to get rid of the sand and the salty water after you are done swimming in the sea. You don’t need to pay for this cenote nor the beach but to find the cenote you need to ask. that is because the cenote is kind of hidden in the jungle. Don’t worry it’s safe and it will take you about 10 minutes to get to it.
So remember if you want to relax and spendsometime with your family or friends without too many people, try this nice and isolated beach.
