Akumal is located just one hour and ten minutes south of Cancun on the Mexican Caribbean coastline of the Yucatan peninsula. Akumal has long been a secret getaway, discovered only by those who dared to travel down the coastline in search of adventure. Yet once discovered many travelers found themselves returning to Akumal year after year. Why...? because Akumal has "Magic", tropical therapy for the soul! And Akumal cares about its precious environment. Akumal is the home of Centro Ecológico de Akumal CEA, a non-profit group dedicated to environmental~marine research, education and sea turtle protection. Now Akumal is leading the way with The Akumal Council, our community organization dedicated to keeping Akumal the magical place it is today, with vision to the future.
