Mahahual, Mexico
The
tiny fishing village of Mahahual is located on Mexico's Southern Caribbean
in the southern most part of the state of Quintana Roo. Known as the Mayan
coast, in Spanish Costa Maya, the
town of Mahahual is at the geographic center of the coast. The Costa Maya
takes it's name from the many centuries over which the Mayan people have
known of this fishing and diving paradise.
Having slumbered for hundreds of years, the once sleepy fishing village of Mahahual, also spelled Majahual, no one knows which is correct, is now beginning to awaken to the attraction of eco-tourism. Located just south of the huge 1,500,000 acre Sian Ka'an wildlife preserve, Mahahual has recently been discovered by tourists from North America.
Because of it's tropical location, latitude 18 degrees, 40 minutes north, or only 1,120 miles north of the equator, Mahahual's crystalline clear waters are always warm. Here divers can discover countless beautiful coral formations, sponges, sea turtles, dolphins, sea horses, manatees, and thousands of sport and reef fish.
As the Caribbean's newest cruise ship destination, Mahahual is now home to a new cruise ship dock and mall. A new power station and water plant were recently completed. New roads and electrical lines are now being installed on Costa Maya both north and south of Mahahual.
There are several small restaurants on the beach in Mahahual where delicious lobster and fresh fish are served daily. There are also several small hotels with rooms to rent that cater to divers, tourists, and fishermen. The pace of life in Mahahual is still slow and it takes people a few days to become accustomed to the relaxed tropical ambience.
