Yalkú

Yalkú Review

Devoted snorkelers may want to walk the unmarked dirt road to Yalkú, a couple of miles north of Akumal in Half Moon Bay. A series of small lagoons that gradually reach the ocean, Yalkú is an eco-park that's home to schools of parrot fish in superbly clear water with visibility to 160 feet. The entrance fee is about $10. You can rent snorkeling equipment in the parking lot for $10, a life jacket for $6, and a locker for $2. The park is open daily 8 to 5:30.
