If you bring the children to Akumal on vacation, there are many things available which are perfect for the younger members of the family. It’s important to keep the kids busy and interested in all of the exciting activities available in Akumal.
Aside from touring the local Mayan ruins, snorkeling is maybe the most popular activity for all visitors to Akumal, and some of the locations are especially perfect for the children. With a few safety precautions, the kids can partake in this fun with little chance of injury or accident.
Properly fitted life vests should be worn by each child. Most villas provide these life vests free of charge. These will not only stop deadly accidents in the water, but will help to cover their torso and stop sunburn in this area. It should also be applied frequently to avoid major skin damage from the hot Caribbean sun!
Yal-Ku Lagoon offers an outstanding location for young snorkelers. The calm waters of the area are free of choppy waters and big waves, allowing them to view the bright ocean life easily. The bay in front of the houses in South Akumal also is perfect because of the reef blocking the waves.
A day at the beach is loved by everyone, and the children can occupy themselves with the white sand all day long. Buckets and shovels give the chance to make sand castles while you rest and watch the kids play. A sandy beach in front of your rental is a major plus. Most rental villas also have a fresh water pool with a Jacuzzi for the family to use. Many also have kyacks for you to paddle.
Always discuss with the children the importance of being aware of your location before a day at the beach. They should not play on turtle nests or dig around in them for fear of destroying eggs buried beneath the sand.
The Jungle Place is a great place to take the animal-loving children in the family. It is a sanctuary for spider monkeys situated four miles south of Akumal neat the town of Chemuyil. Here, they can view many of the local wild animals which are caged or chained for safety. They may also play with the monkeys and talk to the many big parrots located here.
Places like Xel Ha, Hidden Worlds, Dolphin Adventures and Actun Chen also offer excitement for everyone in the family, and are good for even the smaller kids. Hike the jungle to cenotes, visit a cave, ride the zip-line in the jungle, swim with the dolphins, tube down a river, jump from a cliff, or eat homemade ice cream available at many of the local eateries. They are all within a few minute drive of Akumal.
Determining whether your children are adventurous, interested in animals and nature, or simply enjoy to play in the water all day will help you to pick the proper activities for them to partake in. Talk with your kids about what they would like to see and do while in Akumal, and try to do at least one activity that even the kids want to experience.
