The initial stage to sustainable tourism is not to buy all inclusive, since this practice only gives benefit to the hotel owner which is very likely a wealthy foreigner. To rent and stay at any of the houses or condominiums in Akumal Mexico is a great way to start.

Hereupon are some good ideas:

• Rent and stay for your vacation in an Akumal villa or condo instead of a hotel.
• When diving don’t try to spare turtles their air seeking trip to surface by giving them your extra regulator, the dive master will almost certainly close your air lid if you do so. Do not mess with the turtles!
• Never use a straw to consume liquids, turtles confuse them with jellyfish and asphyxiate when swallowing.
• Never stand over the coral reef if you are snorkeling or diving.
• Lift waste, don’t litter!
• Always turn off the AC of your Akumal villa or condo when you’re not using it.
• Consume fish and seafood from the local frisherman and seafood restaurants.
• Use bicycle or walk in place of using a car.
• Snorkel Yalku, your entrance fee will help to preserve the site. Don’t get too far!!!! You could finish in the middle of the ocean very fast.
• Don’t be skinflint and give a nice gratuity to everyone in the staff of your Akumal Villa or condo. They are local people and your money will help them not to migrate.
