Mayan Beach Garden - New at MBG

Mayan Beach Garden closing for two weeks in September.

We will be closed from Sept 13 - Sept 26th so my staff can take vacations. Unusual for us, we are letting everyone take vacations at once, leaving me, Kim and Jim Conrad to hold down the fort. If you need reservations during that time - Casa Porto Vino and Taj Majahual are taking reservations for individual rooms, so contact me and I can help you with a reservation.

Nature sessions with Jim Conrad continue only through end of October

Jim will continue to do nature walks and study the flora and fauna until the end of October when he must return to Hacienda Chichen. He will continue writing his backyardnature.net newsletter from Placer up until his departure. An excerpts from the past couple of newsletters are included below.

A couple of people have come to Mayan Beach Garden and consulted with Jim regarding native plants and trees that they can plant on their property. He has even accompanied some of them. If you are in the area through October - you might want to take the opportunity to learn what is available. An excerpt from his newsletter on Sand Wasps is below.

Spear Fishing teams up with Mayan Beach Garden

Spear fishing Costa Maya
More Info. . .

Those of you who may have wanted to learn how to spear fish with an expert - the time is now here. Mayan Beach Garden is partnering with Costa Maya Spear-fishing and Mike

Spear Fishing is the ultimate in sport fishing. The use of tanks for Spear fishing is illegal in Mexico, but free diving and snorkeling is completely legal. Mike has all the permits needed to take you either from shore or boat snorkel. With a few tips, you'll find you can stay down longer and even maybe spear fish.

Spear fishing is highly selective, uses no bait and has no by-catch meaning no  turtles, Dolphins, Manatee, or other protected species are hurt . With education and proper regulations, spear fishing can be the most ecologically sustainable form of fishing.

Xcalak Cruise Ship

Earlier this month we had this cruise ship arrive in Xcalak. We have no idea how many passengers were on this voyage or what their itinerary was except, we know it came from Cuba, we know there wasn't unlimited meals and drink provided, and there was no need to dress for the Captains dinner.
