Sargassum Situation

[barefootincozumel]

Has anyone been to the beach in Costa Maya recently? What is the current situation?

Cruises have just started back to there.  Thus far it appears it's only ship sponsored excursions for the few ships that have been there.  More are coming.  But no one has yet reported on sargassum along the malecon.

 

Give it another couple of weeks or so for cruisers to post back here.

Last week on the Mardi Gras we were allowed to go on our own there and we saw no sargassum at Crazy Lobster or most other places.

So what places were open?

 

Did you get to Fernando's Store?

Yes, I had Fernando pick me out a couple bottles of good sipping tequila. I missed seeing if Tropicana was still open with the new proprietor, just forgot. It was HOT and I was tired so we didn't stroll down the melancon too far.
