Is important to know that sargassum can accumulate at some times of the year on beaches depending on sea currents and high temperatures. It must be noted that this is a healthy and normal symptom and by no means dangerous, although a bit smelly during the summer. Fortunately, all beaches in Mexico are public at the seafront and it's quite easy to walk five or ten minutes North or South to any of the beaches cared for by the resorts where they usually clear the seagrass every day. Another great option during the hot season is exploring some of the many cenotes in the area or take a very enjoyable boat trip to Isla Mujeres or Cozumel where some of the beaches remain clean throughout the year.
Laundry, pharmacy, bank, car rental and supermarket can be found a few minutes away down the main road.
Taxi service and food delivery directory available for guests.
