About this audio guide
This audio guide to Coco Beach in Playa del Carmen asks a simple question about appetite on this stretch of Caribbean sand, and follows it back to Alonso Dávila, a Spanish captain who planted a town down this coast in the early fifteen hundreds. It also turns to the fishermen, chicle tappers and coconut workers who later settled here, and to the condos rising behind you. Best heard lying on the sand, facing south toward the resort pier.
