Rare crewsweeper Posted March 14, 2016 #26 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Listing of Beach Clubs along the malecon in Mahahual, Mexico The following is a listing,, with pictures where available, for the major beach clubs, hotels, and restaurants along the malecon (boardwalk) in the village of Mahahual, just south of the cruise port, Costa Maya. The list begins at the Lighthouse and only contains places along the walking only beach malecon ending where Sardina/ intersects the malecon ( Macho’s Bar) at the end of the walking only section. Sardina does continue south as a street and there are places along that stretch of Mahahual. Not all bars/restaurants/shops are listed. As much as possible the places are separated by the cross street off of Huachinango, the street taxis use coming from the port. Most beach clubs with each block are side by side. Where there are no listings, there’ no current development or perhaps a small craft store or local bar. The listing is as of January 2016 and place names may change over time. Let’s begin. Ø The lighthouse. (Start of the Walk Only Malecon) Ø BEACH CLUBS AT NORTHERN END (closest to Cruise Port and Lighthouse) Blue Kay (separate entrance just after you turn off the highway on to Huachinango. Ø Senor Frogs ( one of 2 beach clubs with a pool)--may or may not be open? Ø Tequila Beach (first tram stop from port). Ø Corona Beach (no picture) Calle Pargo (First short cross street-no development until Calle Rubia) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waterfreak2009 Posted March 17, 2016 #41 Share Posted March 17, 2016 Do you have to go to a "beach club" and pay to hang out on the beach in this town, or is is possible to just get a ride to town and walk the beach on your own? We are spending a lot of money in our other ports and want to keep this one super cheap. I was planing to just go to town and find a spot on the beach for my 4yo to play.

No you can catch a taxi just outside the port or a tram inside and for $3 per person, get off at the first stop and walk along the malecon past all the beach clubs mentioned on this thread. BUT...if you want to spend some time at a particular spot and get loungers/palapita, food, drink, etc. you'll need to either pay or buy food or drink. None of the latter will be expensive, just don't stop at a place where you need an All-Inclusive package to be able to use the facilities. Another option is at there is a small man made beach at the port and a pool as well which I don't think cost anything, assuming you are there early enough to get a spot. However, food and drink at the port restaurants is very overpriced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2BCruising Posted March 20, 2016 #44 Share Posted March 20, 2016 crewsweeper...thank you for gathering and organizing this helpful information.

Sparetiming Posted April 14, 2016 #45 Share Posted April 14, 2016 Are there any pharmacies in Mahahual? What about the shopping is it better in this village or by the cruise port? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beckyjohns Posted April 30, 2016 #46 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Does anyone know where I might be able to rent jetskis? We aren't interested in an AI, but would likely have lunch and a couple drinks after we were done with the jetskis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YahooCruisingGlory Posted May 30, 2016 #47 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Thank you so much CrewSweeper for all of this information. Is there a link somewhere (I looked and can't seem to find it) of how much each of these locations costs to get in? I just want a lounge chair and a pay-by-the-drink/food ordered place. But mostly a beach day. There are 9 of us in our crew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But mostly a beach day. There are 9 of us in our crew. Most of these places have no entry charge, it's pay-as-you-go for food and drink and they'll supply the lounger. May I suggest, though that you contact Tropicante Beach club and pre-reserve your loungers. http://www.sandalsandskis,com. They will take good care of you, good, food, good, drink, good service. If they are full, ask about El Faro next door. Or head down to YaYa's or Pez Quadro or back up to Hotel Caballo Blanco or Krazy Lobster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
