Chahuay Beach Costa Maya

Chahuay Beach Costa Maya consists of 20 x 77 meters of sandy beachfront on the Caribbean shores of Costa Maya. The unusual elevation relative to the Caribbean coastline in this area also provides picturesque vistas of the Caribbean Sea, storm protection and interesting landscaping opportunities. Chahuay Beach Costa Maya is one of those ideal locations with its peaceful tranquility and gentle breezes. There is 40+ meters of depth on the beach side of the road with the remainder of the land on the west side of the road. There is also a large fresh water lagoon nearby on the west side of the road that provides excellent tarpon and bone fishing!

Perhaps most significantly, Chahuay Beach Costa Maya is now served by the new electrical grid extension from Rio Indio to Placer. This stretch of beach is the only non-commercial beach community to have access to dependable, Federally-subsidized electricity outside of town.

The stunning area known as the Costa Maya is located on the lower third of the Yucatan peninsula on the sparkling blue Caribbean Sea. Known for its pristine white sandy beaches, Costa Maya is a tropical paradise with fauna and flora including abundant coconut palm trees.

Centered in the Costa Maya is the small town of Mahahual. Once a sleepy fishing village, Mahahual has grown into a small resort town with charming hotels and a wide range of dining and shopping opportunities.  Costa Maya offers a wide range of spectacular water activities including snorkeling, scuba diving, deep sea and bone fishing, paddle boarding, swimming and just plain relaxing on the beach!

Only several hundred meters offshore, the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef protects the coastline from possible turbulent seas. The coral reef, often known as the Mayan Barrier Reef, is the second largest barrier reef in the world – second only to the Great Barrier Reef in Australia – and extends 965 kilometers (600 miles) from the Yucatan Peninsula to Honduras. A diver’s and snorkeler’s paradise, the Reef is home to five hundred species of fish and one of the largest colonies of manatees on the planet.
