This is an efficiently-run dive operation, and also offers a lot of group snorkeling opportunities…read more We dove with ADS through Blue Experience Diving, and we were pleased with the facility and the dive sites offered. The boats are small, with room for 8 or 9 divers. Back roll entries are required, as these boats aren't large enough for a dive platform. The boat captains were very good and able to deal with both calm and rough water efficiently. They also helped carry gear when needed, and helped divers deal with gear as they got on and off the boats. I observed ADS dive staff working with student divers, and they seemed patient and thorough (I'm a dive instructor myself, so I can recognize when other dive pros are doing a good job). Safety was a high priority. Overall, a great experience and we were glad to have a chance to dive with Blue Experience Diving and the Akumal Dive Shop.

We came here to visit the sea turtle sanctuary as part of our tour through Cancun adventures…read more The dive center itself is cute. They had bathrooms with showers as well as outdoor showers. I did not appreciate the requirement to wear a life jacket in shallow water to snorkel with the turtles. The amount of people in the snorkeling areas was way too much. People were kicking up sand, flailing in the water and pushing people (me) to get in front of where any turtles were. It was extremely disappointing. The only reasons I got any photos was because I have a GoPro on a stick. I would NOT do the turtle thing again. I would however go scuba diving. That seemed like they took out small groups on small boats so it wouldn't be overcrowded.

I'd taken a seat at the airport to await our gate number on our departing flight, after walking…read morethrough masses of poor quality souvenirs I was happy to be snacking on my gummy bears until boarding time. That's when I glanced over and spotted this gem! I had never heard of Pineda Covalin before so I decided I'd Google the store before walking the 30 feet to check them out in person :) Low and behold what do I spot, gorgeous silk scarves. Honestly, the beautiful male and female models standing outside of their door also did the trick at catching my eye. I was curious! Do these two stunning individuals work for this store or are they possibly fellow travels looking like they just stepped off of the runway. Hey, models are abundant these days in Cancun - with everyone visiting Tulum I wasn't quite sure. Now, I know! They were models and however much they get paid it worked to lure me in and make a purchase. I walked over to check out the goods and loved the friendly service and introduction to the line. Created by two designers Cristina Pineda and Ricardo Covalin the lines purpose is to share the richness of Mexico traditions through its products. I really liked several designs but ended up selecting a very beautiful bright piece that looks great against a tan ;) They also made sure to ask if I wanted the tax refund form which was nice. Before boarding my flight I went over to submit this paperwork. Tax free shopping for visitors is always a plus. They accept USD and pesos but since I was fresh out of pesos I paid in dollars. Save your time and don't waste your pesos on garbage, if you are looking for a beautiful reminder of your Mexican vacation Pineda Covalin is a great store. I look forward to looking up the line in the future for other new designs. You can say they are the Hermes of Mexico ;) Luxury silk at its finest.

cute lil souvenir shop and cafe all in one!! i think its location is prime and great for tourists…read more there are plenty of little trinkets and things to take home, the café on the second floor is within a narrow staircase and has AC as well as a terrace overlooking the city park and a even more narrow staircase to the rooftop! such vibes ~~~

Beautiful displays, with wide varieties of well-crafted stuff!…read more We came in here and checked out their booze selections, coffee offerings, and other local stuff to look at. They're big on t-shirts around here, where they mix Mayan motifs into western imagery and logos. The locally made jewelry looked to be silver and they had a lot of different things that'll end up on shelf somewhere eventually. They have some local liquors which I'd never heard of, and some chocolate liquor that could be interesting. The hammocks were shown to be of superior quality to those sold in the town square. These have four or five different strands of nylon string, while the ones out there on the sidewalk are just two, and can't handle the weight. Hey! What are you saying?! The store took dollars or pesos - you get a better price with pesos. All the prices were clearly marked, so no need to haggle over things. I'd imagine they'd still be willing to do some haggling anyhow. The prices seemed to be a bit higher than any of the street vendors we'd seen, but these were of the higher qualities of stuff. The clerks were most welcoming, and answered all of our questions about their merchandise.
