In this video, I’ll show you the only beach in Playa Del Carmen (that I could find) with no Sargasso in the water or on the beach, as of April 25, 2024. #mexico #travel #beach #vlog #vloggers #playadelcarmenmexico
Cool video man for sure....big heads up!! we will be in the area this Friday!! - What sports bar do you recommend - I'm following the Dallas Mavericks Playoff Run they play Friday!
Thanks for watching Miguel! Unfortunately I was back at that beach today and the seaweed was getting bad again… it changes so quickly but I’ll keep uploading shorts at least to keep people informed. I’m a basketball guy too.. I like San Lucho on 5th Ave near CTM. They have nice TVs and always have the games. Usually no audio because of live music but I still like the vibes and screens there. Have a great trip bro!
Great idea Adam. I guess I forget about that sometimes because we’ve been having literally the same temps everyday: about 89f for the high and 77f for the low, humidity 70%. So mid day feels like 95f. Hope that helps! Luckily, the ocean is still cool enough to be refreshing
I’m about to upload a YT short to update the status of this beach. Unfortunately, the sargasso is rolling in with a vengeance 😟. Thanks for watching Adam! The cenotes are a beautiful alternative to the beach when the sargasso gets bad. Might do Cenote Cristalino next.
Thanks for the update. I thought I had read that this year the government was going to install eco-friendly sargassum barriers in the middle of the ocean, which I think they've tested one around Cancun but not sure if it's worked well up there and if it's still the plan for Playa 😢
hi, i'll stay @ hilton PDC later this month in July... do ya happen to know if any beach section near there doesn't have much seaweed? viewing google map, seems that Playa Mamitas near the Hilton doesn't have much seaweed; if not, a walk from the hilton to this Soundset beach club will be about 20 min... Thx
Hey Dan! Yes, actually I was just at Playa Mamitas and Playa 38 yesterday and BOTH were beautiful with basically no sargassum! Thanks for watching and have a fantastic trip 🏝️🇲🇽😎❤️
Yea, Victoria is the GOAT for sure… the most OG Mexican beer… OXXO near there sold out lol had to go with the backup plan. Salud compadre and thanks for watching 🍻
Last time I travelled to Mexico, in July 2019, there was so much seaweed at Playa Del Carmen and Tulum...piles of about 4-5 feet high, the water was brown and the smell was terrible. It was so troubling to see, since the beach just below the cliffs next to Tulum's ruins were the best I had ever seen. If this summer gets overwhelming, you may want to jump on a ferry and go to Cozumel, I think the beaches facing the Caribbean are still clean? Anyway let's hope a solution will be found to solve this issue, since climate changes are there to stay.
Thanks for that insight!! Yea, if it gets to that point I’ll definitely travel to some of the islands or even just focus more on enjoying the cenotes. The smell can be too much for sure and I hate how the seaweed tickles my ankles while I swim 🥲. Thanks for checking out the video!
If you watch the beginning of the video, it starts on 5th Ave and shows how to get down there… just follow 6th down to the beach and take a right!! It’s basically Playa Centro but the part in front of Soundset beach club. Hope that helps! Thanks for watching 😎 🏝️
The point is that there was no more arriving at the time in the water. The water was clear, if that’s not the case, shoveling it up doesn’t help. Thanks for watching
Well… the camera doesn’t lie 😅… there was no sargassum in the water. Look at the thumbnail photo taken that day, watch the video… do you see any sargassum? Forgive me for trying to show people where they can enjoy a good swim 👏🏼👏🏼😂
@@theropemonster nope it’s sargassum lived there 6 months in a actual nice place unlike you. you’re there at the worst possible time brother gonna get real nasty soon everyday until August
