Swimming with Sea Turtles - Akumal Bay in the Riviera Maya Mexico

Mexico has the largest number of sea turtle species worldwide. Seven of the eight species known at the world  nest on Mexican beaches in the Pacific, the Gulf of Mexico and in the Caribbean.One of the most amazing experiences we've had in visiting Mexico is taking the Akumal Bay Snorkeling Tour to see/swim with the Green Sea Turtles.

The Green Turtle is a vegetarian species when adult and loves the sea grass in the Akumal Bay. They will also consume algae and invetebrates. We have also filmed these majestic animals in the bay of the Barcelo Palace Resort.

On this day, at Akumal Bay, we enjoyed 7 different turtles. Hope you enjoy!
