Maya Chan beach

Maya Chan is a private beach on the Caribbean coast of Mexico, focused on tourists from cruise ships arriving at the port of Costa Maya. Daily amount of tourists is limited by the administration, so it never becomes overcrowded here. The place is beautiful and with excellent service. Unfortunately, there are usually a lot of algae in the water, but it doesn't spoil positive feeling. Shore and seabed: sand, stones. [edit]
