A slew of boats rest on the serene playa in Akumal, Mexico. I walked along the water’s edge taking photos of the boats just as the sun was setting behind me. It is one of my favorite beaches in the Mayan Riviera.
Category Archives: Akumal In my last post, I shared Part One of my expedition through the Yucatan jungles of Mexico with a group of explorers who are huge aficionados of Maya ruins. As I mentioned in the post, our goal was to retrace and locate some of the Mayan ruins that were documented by the French explorer Michel Peissel in his 1963 book […]

 One of the prettiest beaches you will find is in Akumal, México. Last time I was there I encountered this beauty enjoying the clear blue waters. I was taking pics of the boats and she kept walking into my shot. Hmmm, maybe she was trying to tell me something… Click photo for a big surprise

 I was hanging out in the spectacular beaches of Akumal in the Mayan Riviera recently when these two lovely Argentinian girls passed by.
