About this audio guide
This guide to Paamul beach, a quiet cove south of Playa del Carmen, starts with a puzzle hidden in its Maya name and the settlement that may once have stood here. It passes through a coconut plantation that shipped oil to Mérida and a motorhome park, then turns to the nesting green turtles and loggerheads that come ashore after dark. Best heard on the sand near the water's edge.
