What Activities to do in and around Mahahual

The Costa Maya offers a variety of activities to visitors who want to combine an unspoiled environment with sports & culture:

Take a snorkel tour with one of the many tour operators in Mahahual. Prices start!
If you are a diver you came to the right place. One, two or even three tanks, its up to you . There are many beautiful dive spots in front of our coast.
When you are new to diving but want to try it, a discover dive is exactly what you need. With some theory and a very shallow dive you can decide if diving is your thing or not!
Costa Maya is also excellent for Deep sea and fly fishing. We can get you into contact with one of the locals. Most of them have been fisherman before they started to work in tourism. They know all the good places to fish. They have been organizing fishing tours for many years. Personal service for small groups.
